Improper use of breast pumps can lead to breast damage.
Breast pump is one of the most commonly used devices during breastfeeding. It can help to improve milk retention and distention by removing the milk from the breasts through negative pressure suction. During use, the breast pump is fixed to the breast area, and it is important to make sure that the breast pump is tightly fitted to the breast skin all around, and then the breast pump should be operated gently, avoiding violence and preventing damage to the breasts.
If the breast pump is used suddenly and vigorously, it may cause damage to the nipple and breast tissue, and is likely to induce mastitis and other conditions to occur.
Therefore, it is necessary for mothers to follow the instructions or doctor’s guidance for the use of breast pumps. In addition, in order to improve the application of breast pumps, before using breast pumps, you can first carry out a hot breast massage, to improve the tension of the milk ducts, but also conducive to the emptying of milk, thus improving the effectiveness of the use of breast pumps.
