Patient's question:
I just gave birth about 10 days ago. A few days ago, my breasts were touched, and they became very swollen and painful with some lumps. I also had a high fever, but it has now subsided. I have been applying a towel to my breasts and using a breast pump, but they are still very swollen. Please help me find a doctor!Doctor's answer:
This could be caused by mastitis. It is recommended to use more heat compresses and massage with your hands. Currently, it is not advisable to breastfeed the baby. This should be due to pressure on the breast. You can choose heat compresses and find a professional massage therapist to try it out.
