What to do if your shoulders hurt during breastfeeding

The breastfeeding period is a very special period. On the one hand, you have to take good care of yourself after childbirth, and on the other hand, you have to feed the baby. It is very easy to develop postpartum rheumatism due to colds and other reasons. The typical symptom is symptoms such as shoulder pain. Postpartum rheumatism is extremely harmful. If suspected symptoms appear, they must be diagnosed promptly and responded to actively. So, what should I do if I have shoulder pain during breastfeeding? Let’s take a look below.

1. If your shoulders get cold during breastfeeding, you may often feel cold in your shoulders because of postpartum disease, shoulder periarthritis during the confinement period, or postpartum rheumatism. In this case, you can use Chinese medicine to apply the shoulder stickers for timely treatment and care, which will not affect breastfeeding and improve quickly.

2. Patients with postpartum rheumatism can be treated scientifically. They can take anti-rheumatic drugs, and tripterygium wilfordii can also be used for treatment. However, because they are breastfeeding, it is not recommended for people with problems to take western medicine. Also, they should not drink beer or cola, as they will cause osteoporosis.

3 Hot compress and cupping are effective for cold shoulders during breastfeeding, and for those who often feel cold shoulders. Patients are advised to maintain a happy mood. Patients can receive acupuncture and massage therapy. Also, don't do strenuous exercise. Instead, do moderate exercise and get plenty of sunlight. Note:

Patients who often feel cold shoulders during breastfeeding should not be suspicious or blame their family members for taking care of them. If they are sick, they should seek treatment in a down-to-earth manner. Any maintenance and complaints will not be effective.
