Breast pain without lumps during lactation

Women who are breastfeeding have experienced the feeling of breast pain. Because they need to breastfeed, if the mother's milk secretions are too much and the baby cannot eat so much, the breasts will hurt. Some mothers find that their breasts hurt, but there is no lumps when touched, which makes them a little worried. Next, let’s understand what causes breast pain without lumps during lactation?

1. Milk stasis can cause breast pain. Mothers need to choose a bra that suits them. Before breastfeeding, apply heat to the painful side of the breast for 3 to 5 minutes, and then massage the breast. Massaging the breast is to help unblock the lumps, and then breastfeed several times to discharge the remaining breast milk of the baby and drain the breast.

2. Mastitis. The mother should use a manual breast pump. If breast cysts have not occurred, the pumped breast milk can be given to the baby. But if breast cysts occur, the extracted breast milk should be thrown away. The mother should see a doctor immediately and use medication under the doctor's guidance.

3. Cracked nipples. Usually, you should take good care of your breasts. After each breastfeeding, if conditions permit, you can apply some balm to keep your nipples smooth and lustrous. Correct the breastfeeding method to prevent nipple cracking due to the baby's incorrect sucking of the nipple.

Mothers should have confidence in their own breast milk and not give up breast milk for no reason. You can use a manual breast pump more often in daily life, which can help mothers drain their breasts in many cases. Mothers should try not to use glass bottles to feed their babies. Let the baby suck more, and the breast milk will increase. When choosing bras during breastfeeding, try to choose comfortable fabrics and looser versions, and don't wear bras with rigid rings. At the same time, it is also necessary to do a good job of breast cleaning and care, which is not only beneficial to women, but also beneficial to the growth and development of babies.
