I'm sorry to hear about your wife's discomfort. It's best to consult a breast specialist or a general surgeon to evaluate the pain. They can assess her symptoms, conduct necessary tests, and guide her further.

I've noticed some hard, movable lumps in my left breast that hurt when I press them. I've been stressed lately and sometimes my periods are late. There's also some discomfort in my armpit area. Could this be something serious like cancer, or can it be treated with medicines? Would I need surgery for this?

gynaecologist opinion is advised to the patient

I had surgery in Bangladesh 2 years ago for this issue but now it's come back in a different spot. The doctor there is recommending another surgery but I'm looking for a specialist in India who really understands this condition and can treat it properly so it doesn't keep recurring. Can you suggest someone experienced with this?

This condition may require clinical evaluation to determine the exact cause and treatment. Some cases can be managed conservatively, while others may need surgical intervention depending on size, symptoms, and severity. Regular follow-up is important to monitor progress.
