Patient's question:
Let me be admitted for surgery and drainage. My mother-in-law and others said to check two more hospitals. I went to Southwest Hospital and had a needle inserted, and they said it was milk. Then my mother said to take traditional Chinese medicine, which I took for two weeks, and then they just left it. The lump has been there the whole time. I usually squeeze it, but there’s not much milk that comes out. Today, when I squeezed, it actually expelled yellow, thick liquid. After squeezing, the lump got smaller, but then it grew back again. When I squeezed again, there was red, thick liquid with milk-like spots. What’s going on now? Can this breast still be used for diapers? Can I focus on squeezing it out?Doctor's answer:
Based on the situation you mentioned, currently your breasts only don't have redness, swelling, heat, or pain? Based on the situation you mentioned, currently your breasts only don't have redness, swelling, heat, or pain? It is recommended that you use a breast pump to express all the milk, take some anti-inflammatory medication orally for a few days, and do not feed the baby anymore. The above is the advice for the question "I am breastfeeding, and when my baby is almost four months old, there are hard lumps after a night's sleep." It is hoped that it will be helpful to you. Wishing you good health!
