During breastfeeding, especially 2 to 4 weeks after delivery, it is easy to complicate mastitis, so extra attention should be paid to active prevention.
In general, after giving birth, women will easily develop milk stagnation, which is manifested as swelling and pain in the breast, and in severe cases, it is also easy to develop infection secondary to it. It is important to maintain good breastfeeding practices after childbirth, to pump milk every day, and to pay attention to the hygiene of the nipples of the breasts, preferably by washing them every day.
If you find any milk stagnation, you should suck up the milk with a breast pump and stop breastfeeding if there is an obvious inflammatory mass. However, the milk should be pumped daily and local physical therapy, including hot compresses and massage, should be performed to promote the regression of the inflammatory masses.
If necessary, further anti-inflammatory treatment options are needed.
