Can you apply hot compresses to a headache while breastfeeding?

Headache can be relieved by applying hot compresses during breastfeeding, mainly because hot compresses can promote local blood circulation, which may improve the symptoms of headache. If the headache is still not relieved by applying hot compresses, it is best to go to the hospital to find out the cause of the headache, and poor rest and lack of sleep during breastfeeding may also lead to headache symptoms. In addition, organic lesions can cause headaches. It is recommended to find out the cause and then give the corresponding treatment. We should be especially careful with medication during breastfeeding because some drugs will be excreted through breast milk and then be absorbed by the baby when breastfeeding, which will affect the baby’s health.
