What symptom is blocking milk

summary

Milk blocking is a common situation, it seems not a serious disease, but it is likely to lead to other more serious cases if it is not treated in time. The birth of the baby brings a lot of joy to the mother. At the same time, the mother also has a responsibility. Many mothers choose to breastfeed the baby for the sake of the baby's health, but if they don't pay attention to it, the breast will be blocked, which will lead to the blocking of milk. The breast has obvious lumps and pain. Let's share my experience.

What symptom is blocking milk

First: in the early stage of blocking milk, you can dredge it by yourself, apply it with cold water, and then slowly knead it with your hands. If the milk lump is just formed, most of the cold compress kneading methods can be kneaded open, so there will be no inflammation and fever behind.

Second: if more than two days of blocked milk block through cold massage method did not slowly eliminate, but more and more big and more pain, and has appeared systemic pain, weakness and other feverish symptoms, must go to the hospital, check whether has inflammation, if inflammation will hang anti-inflammatory water, to explain with the doctor is still lactation, so hang the water does not affect the normal feeding.

Third: no matter whether it is inflamed or not, remember that in the later period of blocking milk, you can only apply hot compress and knead method, use hot towel to compress breast, then thumb and index finger are C-shaped, other fingers bend, gently knead the milk knot part, and push it to the nipple, so that you can slowly push the milk block away. If you really don't know it, you can go to the hospital and ask the nurse who kneads milk to help push it.
