What should I do if I squeezed the breast hard and it became soft, and it still hurts after two days?

Patient's question:

Breasts have become softer, nipples retracted for two days, forcefully squeezed breasts

Doctor's answer:

Analysis of the condition: What does breast softening mean? The normal texture of the breast is soft. Young, non-lactating women have breasts with a certain degree of resilience. Since the breast is composed of glandular tissue, and the glandular tissue is made up of milk ducts and lobules, strong pressure may lead to damage to the milk ducts, which can stimulate nerves and cause pain.
Suggestions for treatment: If there is no hematoma, subcutaneous hematoma, or nipple discharge, you may not need special treatment for the time being. If the above symptoms appear and you are breastfeeding, you should seek further medical evaluation, including ultrasound and ductoscopy.
