How to deal with yellow breast milk during mastitis?

Patient's question:

Recently, for some reason, I've been feeling particularly uncomfortable in my breasts, and there are also hard lumps. What should I do if mastitis causes the milk to turn yellow?

Doctor's answer:

After developing mastitis, the milk has turned yellow, which should be related to a bacterial infection. Mastitis is usually treated with penicillin-class anti-inflammatory drugs, which have relatively small side effects. You can go to the breast surgery department of the hospital for a follow-up examination and take medication under the guidance of a doctor. You should drink plenty of water and eat nutrient-rich, easily digestible foods. Avoid spicy and irritating foods. You should have a breast ultrasound and other relevant examinations at the hospital to confirm the cause before treatment. Always maintain a calm mood and try to stay active as much as possible.
