As we all know, breastfeeding is a special period for mothers. They must ensure their physical health and have sufficient milk to provide nutrition for their babies. However, some women often find that their breasts experience pain during breastfeeding, sometimes accompanied by fever. In this case, they are mostly suffering from mastitis, which is caused by milk congestion, resulting in infection in the mammary ducts. If the milk is not sucked out cleanly, it will cause pain. So what should we do in this situation? Common breast problems during lactation include: 1. Nipple cracking: Cause: Failure to properly care for breasts during pregnancy; failure to master correct breastfeeding techniques. Treatment: Clean and care for the breasts. Apply lanolin after each feeding to keep the nipples soft and smooth. Correct the baby's sucking posture to avoid repeated nipple cracks caused by incorrect sucking. Wear loose cotton underwear and bras and continue breastfeeding. If the pain of nipple cracks affects breastfeeding, you can use a breast pump and a special nipple shield. 2. Breast pain: Reason 1: Milk stasis Treatment: Wear a comfortable bra, apply hot compress on the affected side for 3-5 minutes before breastfeeding, massage the breast to clear the lumps, increase the number of feedings, express milk correctly and use a breast pump. Reason 2: Mastitis Treatment: Use a breast pump as early as possible. If there is no breast abscess, the expressed milk can continue to be fed. If a breast abscess occurs, the expressed milk should be discarded. You should see a doctor and receive anti-inflammatory treatment under the doctor's guidance. 3. Nipple illusion: Cause: Within one month after the baby is born, if the mother's milk production is low or the mother and baby are separated for various reasons, such as feeding the baby with milk from a bottle, the baby may no longer be willing to suck the mother's nipple. Treatment: Maintain confidence in breastfeeding and do not give up breastfeeding easily; make full use of the breast pump to help mothers promote milk secretion in various difficult situations; use auxiliary feeding devices and special feeding cups, and try to avoid using bottles. When eating, add appropriate amount of brown sugar, stir well, bring to a boil, and serve in a bowl. |
