Swollen axillary lymph nodes during lactation is a relatively common symptom. For friends who have swollen axillary lymph nodes during lactation, they must be very worried. So what should you do if you have swollen axillary lymph nodes during lactation? Next, this article will introduce you to what to do if your axillary lymph nodes are swollen during breastfeeding, for your reference only. Please see the detailed introduction below. There is no need to worry too much if a woman develops a lump under her armpit after giving birth. Some women suddenly find a lump under their armpit about 2-3 days after giving birth. The lump is about the size of an egg and is extremely painful, which makes them very worried and scared. Some suspected that they had swollen lymph nodes, while others feared that they had tumors. They were very nervous and even sought medical treatment everywhere. What should I do if my armpit lymph nodes are swollen during breastfeeding? If the axillary lymph nodes are only slightly swollen during lactation, that is, there is only one or a few scattered swellings, which are soft, non-tender, non-adhesive, and not accompanied by other symptoms, then there is no need for treatment for the time being, but the changes must be closely observed. If it does not increase or gradually decreases, you can continue to observe. Acute lymphadenitis should first control inflammation to prevent further expansion, and use effective and sufficient antibacterial and anti-inflammatory drugs for treatment, which can generally significantly reduce the size of the swollen lymph nodes. If the axillary lymph nodes are already very large during breastfeeding, or there is a tendency for them to grow larger, or if more of them occur, then you must see a doctor. If the swollen lymph nodes are large and numerous, especially in clusters, gradually or rapidly increasing in size, and adhered to surrounding tissues, and there are also swollen lymph nodes in other parts of the body (such as the armpits), and accompanied by other symptoms such as fever, anemia, and weight loss, you should go to the hospital immediately for relevant examinations (even lymph node biopsy) to achieve timely diagnosis and treatment. It can be treated with penicillin antibiotics. During breastfeeding, everyone should relax, avoid overwork and tension, adjust their mentality, eat a healthy diet, drink plenty of water, and feed scientifically. Don't leave any excess milk, and believe that the so-called lump will disappear soon. If you find symptoms, go to a regular hospital to see a doctor for a thorough check-up, eliminate all the causes one by one, find the cause, actively treat it, and keep a good mood. The above is an introduction on what to do if you have swollen axillary lymph nodes during breastfeeding. I believe that after reading the above introduction, you already know what to do if you have swollen axillary lymph nodes during lactation. From the above introduction, we can know that, generally speaking, if the symptoms of swollen axillary lymph nodes during lactation are not serious, no treatment is required and close observation is sufficient. If the growth rate is fast and accompanied by other discomfort symptoms, you need to go to the hospital for treatment in time. |
