Acute mastitis is an acute purulent disease that occurs in the breast, mostly in new mothers. It develops when the nipple is easily sucked and bacteria invade it, and the milk stagnates, making it easy for bacteria to multiply. The main manifestations are redness, swelling, heat and pain in the affected breast, enlarged and painful lymph nodes in the ipsilateral axilla, and generalized fever. If not handled properly, breast abscesses can easily form.
Acute mastitis occurs in most women who are new to breastfeeding. The initial manifestation is nipple cracking and pain, and the pain increases when breastfeeding, resulting in fear or refusal to breastfeed, and the accumulation of milk, breast swelling and discomfort, or lumps of accumulated milk. Localized redness, swelling, pain, pressure or painful lumps can occur. In severe infections, the inflammatory lump increases in size and may be volatile, and there may be enlarged, painful and painful axillary lymph nodes. Systemic manifestations include chills, high fever, and increased white blood cells. The manifestation of abscesses varies from site to site.
Superficial abscesses can penetrate on their own, while abscesses in the body often do not fluctuate, and abscesses can penetrate deep into the lax connective tissue behind the breast and form posterior breast abscesses. Abscesses that are not drained can enter different interlobular spaces and penetrate the interlobular connective tissue spaces to form dumbbell abscesses or multiple abscesses. In cases where the large ducts of the breast are involved, purulent milk or milk fistulas may develop.
The pathogenesis of acute mastitis is the inability of milk to escape and the development of stasis, which reduces the vitality of local breast tissue and creates conditions conducive to bacterial reproduction. Therefore, fundamentally, milk stasis and bacterial infection are the two causes of the disease, and the main measures to prevent mastitis are to prevent milk stasis and bacterial infection.
