Patient's question:
I am a mother of a four-month-old baby. My milk production has always been low, so when it comes time to nurse, the baby can't finish it, and I don't want to express it either. As a result, one of my breasts seems to have a thin tube that is always painful. Please ask: Is this mastitis? Can I still breastfeed the baby? What kind of medicine can help it heal quickly without affecting the quality of the milk?Doctor's answer:
