How to handle breast lumps during lactation

Patient's question:

I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? How should I handle breast lumps during breastfeeding?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, the condition you described is mastitis, which is generally caused by Staphylococcus aureus infection. Local application of magnesium sulfate can be used on the breast, while milk should be emptied. If there is an abscess, incision and drainage may be necessary. The occurrence of gynecological diseases not only affects a woman's body but can also lead to the development of gynecological conditions. Therefore, it is best to visit the gynecology department of a hospital for a vaginal examination to identify the cause and receive symptomatic treatment. Pay attention to dietary management, consuming light and easily digestible foods, and avoid spicy, stimulating, and cold foods.
