How to clear breast lumps

Breast lumps are a common phenomenon among women. Generally speaking, if lumps appear in the breasts under normal circumstances, it is likely to be lobular hyperplasia. If this happens after childbirth, it could be lobular hyperplasia or milk stasis. Of course, breast lumps can be cleared through certain methods. Below, I will introduce you to some relevant knowledge!

1. Causes of lumps in the breast after childbirth

1. Check whether there is lobular hyperplasia

Most of the time, it is caused by changes in the hormone levels in the mothers' bodies. You can try taking some Xiaoyao Pills. In addition, patients with breast hyperplasia should have a check-up every year. According to their own situation, they can choose color ultrasound, mammography, infrared breast radiography and other examination methods. They can also be treated with Ru'an tablets under the doctor's advice.

2. Milk stasis problem

If the congestion is severe, mastitis may occur. Because if milk is retained for a long time, it will cause the internal pressure to be too high, resulting in local edema, and bacteria will take advantage of the opportunity to enter and cause inflammation.

2. How to treat breast lumps after childbirth

1. External application of cactus: Take fresh cactus, remove the thorns, mash it and apply it externally. If you add 10 grams each of Glauber's salt and Indigo to the cactus mud, the effect will be better.

2. Traditional Chinese medicine conditioning: Traditional Chinese medicine itself has no drug resistance, so treatment with traditional Chinese medicine decoctions has great advantages and better effects. It is recommended that mothers seek professional Chinese medicine practitioners and not trust quack doctors.

3. Traditional Chinese Medicine Massage: This is a relatively effective method that can relieve edema and discharge stagnant milk. Many professional masseurs are good at it, and most patients can be cured in one session.

4. Antibiotic infusion: This is a more common method, but the effect is also the worst.

5. Comprehensive treatment: If the condition is more serious, the above methods can be used in combination, and the effect will be more obvious.

3. Postpartum breast lumps care methods

1. In the early stage, you can wear a bra to increase blood circulation in the chest. In addition, you can apply cold compress for 3-5 minutes to reduce milk secretion. In this case, you can continue breastfeeding.

2. If the amount of milk is large and the skin on the chest is tight, it will be difficult for the baby to hold the nipple and suck. You can express some milk in advance to soften the areola so that the baby can hold the areola and nipple correctly.

3. Breastfeed according to the baby's needs. If there is too much milk, you can express it artificially.

4. If the nipples are cracked or ulcerated and the pain is unbearable, you can use a "nipple shield" while breastfeeding; you can also directly express the milk artificially and then feed it to the baby. In addition, timely treatment is required. Apply medicine (ointment made of bismuth subcarbonate and cod liver oil) after each breastfeeding, and wash it off before breastfeeding again.
