Patient's question:
I'm probably about three days postpartum now. The current situation is that there's a feeling of soreness and fullness in my breasts, they feel hard, and the milk is only dripping, not spraying. The soreness and fullness are quite uncomfortable. How can I relieve breast engorgement after childbirth?Doctor's answer:
According to the information you provided, massage of the breast, especially when there are underlying conditions in the breast, this massage may cause pain. However, as the breast ducts gradually become unblocked, this pain will gradually improve. Early massage may cause pain, and it may be very painful. However, the technique should start relatively light and gradually increase in intensity, with an adaptation process.
