Patient's question:
I am very scared when this happens. I often experience lower abdominal pain and don't know how to solve it, so I came here to consult. Please ask how to resolve the severe pain when the baby is breastfeeding.Doctor's answer:
If the child experiences pain in the right breast while breastfeeding, first consider whether there are issues such as inverted nipples or cracked nipples. When the nipples are inverted, the child often struggles to suck out milk, leading to repeated forceful sucking and causing discomfort such as pain. Additionally, dry and cracked nipples can also cause pain. Before feeding, you can express a small amount of milk and apply it to the nipples to moisturize and protect them. Once they heal, the child can suck without pain.
