Every woman will face the situation of getting married and having children. It is a woman's duty, and after giving birth, for the health of the baby, most women will breastfeed. However, female friends should understand that there will be many problems during the process of exclusive breastfeeding, and they need to be fully prepared. For example: During the breastfeeding process, you should pay attention to the condition of milk duct blockage, so let’s discuss what to do if the milk duct is blocked?

If the effect of self-treatment is not very good, you should seek medical treatment immediately. Do not rub them randomly, as this may damage the milk ducts. Some mothers who are breastfeeding think it is a trivial matter and may miss the best opportunity for treatment, making the symptoms of blocked milk worse.

3. In the case of milk duct obstruction, the baby is also a good helper for milk duct passage. After the baby drinks the milk, he will be more anxious and energetic, and the milk will be delivered by the mother, which has a certain effect. Moreover, the baby helps the milk to flow out, which is healthier than the mother using a needle to pierce it. However, it should be noted that if the pregnant mother has pierced the blockage of milk duct, do not let the baby continue to suck.

The occurrence of milk duct obstruction requires pregnant women to master the correct method during the breastfeeding process to avoid milk accumulation. When milk duct obstruction occurs, be careful not to breastfeed and take a rest. It is recommended to clean the nipples every day and then apply it locally. In addition, take the medicine safely under the guidance of the doctor.
