On the fourth day of a natural birth, there is milk in the breasts when squeezed, but the baby cannot suck it out.

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Hello, the condition you described is mastitis, which is generally caused by Staphylococcus aureus infection. Local application of magnesium sulfate can be used on the breast, while milk should be emptied. If there is an abscess, incision and drainage may be necessary.
