How to unblock breast milk

For women, breasts not only reflect their figure, but also play an important role in breastfeeding. But not all women's breasts and milk are normal. During lactation, if the breast milk supply is abnormal, you can choose to use certain methods to unclog the breasts to ensure normal breastfeeding for the child. Next, I will introduce to you how to unblock breast milk!

1. Be sure to breastfeed your baby as soon as possible. If you cannot let your baby suck within 24 hours after delivery, the milk may regurgitate and cause blockage, resulting in breast pain and discomfort. While the baby is sucking, milk will be secreted and all blocked areas will be unblocked.

2. You can use a breast pump. After giving birth, many babies will not suck milk. In this case, adults have no other options and can only use a breast pump to suck out the milk to achieve the purpose of emptying it, and it can also prevent milk swelling and pain. However, you must choose a breast pump of good quality so that the effect of pumping milk will be better.

3. Apply hot compresses frequently, because this situation is caused by blocked milk ducts. At this time, proper hot compresses can open all the milk ducts and allow milk to flow smoothly. The water temperature must be appropriate, not too hot or too cold, otherwise the effect will not be achieved. If it is too hot, it will burn the skin. It is best to test it with your hand first.

4. You can use the method of lactation induction, mainly through artificial massage to achieve the purpose of lactation. This method can also dredge the mammary glands and prevent postpartum mastitis. However, you must go to a regular hospital for massage, because improper massage may cause adverse damage to the breasts.

If the breasts are not unblocked, the milk supply will become less and less, and may even cause mastitis. If your milk is swollen and painful and cannot be relieved, you should use the above methods. You should also make sure that you are in a good mood, because this situation is also closely related to emotions. When people are angry or nervous, the whole body will have adverse reactions. At the same time, you should drink water frequently to promote milk secretion.
