What is the cause of the hard lumps in the breast during weaning?

Many women are prone to breast lumps during breastfeeding. Some old sayings hold that milk can be withdrawn on its own if it is not expressed, which eventually leads to the appearance of some lumps. In fact, these are often caused by mastitis.

1 In fact, these lumps are formed by milk blocking the mammary ducts. Because milk is a good culture medium for bacteria, it causes mastitis and fever.

2 If the pushing action is repeated for a long time and the milk still cannot be discharged or is not discharged completely, and the lumps remain, it will cause mastitis and cause symptoms such as fever in the mother and redness of the skin in the breast. At this time, please contact a professional lactation consultant in time.

3 During the operation, you can use a towel to cover the squeezed milk. After the accumulated milk is completely discharged, clean the breasts with clean water and shower gel.
