What to do if there are lumps in the breast milk after weaning

After weaning the baby, women need to take care of their breasts. At this time, there are more problems prone to occur in women's breasts. If they are not taken care of, even if these problems are not improved, it will also cause damage to their own health. Women should also pay attention to this. What should I do if there are lumps in my breasts after weaning? This is a common situation for women. After lumps appear, there are some solutions. The following is a detailed introduction.

What to do if there are lumps when weaning milk:

If there are lumps in your breasts during weaning, it's probably because the milk is being squeezed. Touch the area and see if it hurts. If it doesn’t hurt, apply a hot compress first. If that doesn’t work, you will need to find a professional masseur to give you a massage.

During weaning, if there are breast pain and lumps in the breast, local hot compresses or massage can be used to improve the condition. After weaning, mothers should drink less soup to help reduce milk secretion and stop milk production faster. If there is still a lot of milk, you can use a bra binder to tightly bind your breasts, or when your breasts are too full, use a breast pump to suck out some of the milk and then bind your breasts tightly with cloth.

Weaning can gradually reduce the number of breastfeeding times. When the baby needs to be weaned, in order to reduce the occurrence of milk engorgement, mothers should slowly reduce the number of feedings as the baby approaches the weaning period. This will reduce milk secretion, which will not only help the baby wean, but also reduce the pain of milk engorgement.

If there are lumps in the breast milk when weaning, you can take vitamin B6, 200 mg each time, 3 times a day, for 3 consecutive days. (Applicable after the start of breastfeeding and before weaning) If the mother does not have much milk before weaning the baby, there is no need to take any medication and let the milk secretion stop naturally. However, this may leave some milk lumps in the mother's breasts, which can be felt when touched. Don't worry, generally, these milk lumps will be naturally absorbed after a period of time.

After understanding what to do if there are lumps in the breasts due to weaning, you can choose the above methods to relieve the lumps in the breasts due to weaning. At the same time, breast massage is also very important, so that the lumps can be eliminated quickly. In the process of eliminating the lumps, women should not eat too greasy food, as this will make the lumps in the breasts larger.
