Discover unparalleled breast care with Dr. Arundhati Lote, a leading Breast Oncosurgeon in Nagpur. With a patient-centric philosophy, Dr. Lote provides holistic and personalized breast care services to address diverse conditions.
Benign Breast Conditions
Benign breast diseases encompass non-cancerous conditions affecting breast tissue, leading to symptoms like lumps and pain. Common examples include fibroadenomas (solid, firm lumps), cysts (fluid-filled sacs causing pain), mastitis (infection, often in breastfeeding women), ductal ectasia (widened milk ducts causing discharge, pain, and lumps), and fat necrosis (tissue damage resulting in a lump, occasionally mistaken for cancer). While most are non-cancerous and don’t heighten breast cancer risk, any breast changes warrant evaluation by a healthcare professional to rule out potential serious conditions, including cancer.
Breast Cancer Treatment Options
Breast cancer treatment is personalized, considering factors like cancer type, stage, overall health, and individual characteristics. Key options include:
- Surgery: Typically the initial approach, aiming to remove the tumor and surrounding tissues. Options include lumpectomy, mastectomy, and lymph node biopsy.
- Radiation Therapy: Utilizes high-energy radiation post-surgery to eliminate residual cancer cells and minimize recurrence risk.
- Chemotherapy: Involves drugs to target cancer cells throughout the body, suitable for cases where cancer has spread beyond the breast.
- Hormone Therapy: Blocks hormones like estrogen and progesterone, crucial for certain breast cancer types, and may be combined with other treatments.
- Targeted Therapy: Utilizes drugs specifically designed for cancer cells, like HER2-positive breast cancer cells, often combined with other modalities.

When to Seek Medical Attention
Recognizing the signs and symptoms that warrant a visit to a breast oncologist is crucial for early diagnosis and effective treatment. If you experience any of the following, it’s important to consult Dr. Arundati Marathe Lote:
Changes in Breast Appearance
- Lumps or Masses: Any new lump or mass in the breast or underarm area that persists or changes in size should be evaluated promptly.
- Skin Changes: Noticeable changes in the skin texture, such as dimpling, puckering, or redness, can be signs of breast issues.
Abnormal Nipple Discharge
- Unexplained Discharge: Discharge from the nipple that is bloody, clear, or occurs without squeezing should be assessed by a specialist.
- Changes in Nipple Shape: Any inversion or change in the appearance of the nipple may require further investigation.
Persistent Pain
Breast Pain: While breast pain is often benign, persistent or localized pain that does not improve with time should be examined.
Family History of Breast Cancer
- Genetic Risk Factors: If you have a family history of breast cancer or related genetic conditions, it’s advisable to seek evaluation even if you have no symptoms.
High-Risk Factors
- Previous Breast Conditions: A history of atypical hyperplasia, lobular carcinoma in situ (LCIS), or other breast conditions may increase your risk and necessitate regular check-ups.
Unexplained Weight Loss or Fatigue
- Systemic Symptoms: Significant weight loss, fatigue, or unexplained changes in overall health can sometimes be associated with underlying health issues, including cancer.
Routine Screening Recommendations
- Age and Risk Factors: If you are 40 or older, or if you have other risk factors, it’s important to schedule routine screenings, such as mammograms, even if you feel healthy.
Recurrence Symptoms
Previous Breast Cancer Diagnosis: If you have had breast cancer in the past, be alert for any new symptoms or changes in breast health, and consult your oncologist without delay.
Other Concerns
- General Breast Health: Any other concerns regarding breast health, such as unusual changes or personal worries, should be discussed with a medical professional.
Being proactive about breast health is essential. If you notice any of these symptoms or have concerns about your breast health, don’t hesitate to contact Dr. Arundati Marathe Lote for a thorough evaluation and guidance.
