Patient's question:
How to deal with severe breast engorgement during weaning? Besides applying heat, are there any better methods? Also, what should I do if my nipple gets an ulcer from being bitten by the child? Thank you for your reply!Doctor's answer:
Hello, if you experience breast engorgement and pain during weaning, you need to express the milk to prevent inflammation. You can drink water cooked with malt and millet sprouts, or take professional weaning medication. During weaning, if you have a nipple ulcer, keep the nipple dry to heal on its own and do not let the child suckle anymore.
