Patient's question:
After a cesarean section, the milk is swollen and painful, but it's very difficult to express. The baby doesn't suck much, and after a while, it swells again. What should I do? Will it cause any interference if it's not expressed?Doctor's answer:
This situation requires more sucking, otherwise it is likely to block the milk ducts, leading to milk stasis and even interfering with milk production. It is recommended to let the baby suck more, especially when the baby is hungry. Before sucking, use a warm towel to apply cold compress. Pay attention to a light diet, and after two weeks, you can enhance nutrition.Additionally, for cesarean section patients during recovery, the patient's dietary condition and care are also very important. The patient must pay close attention to their diet and eat more light foods to avoid unnecessary harm.
