We all know that during pregnancy, the health of pregnant women is very important. Moreover, pregnant women must pay attention to some small details during pregnancy to avoid causing certain physical effects. For example, some pregnant women find particles around their nipples. They don’t know what’s going on and worry that it is caused by physical abnormalities. So let us take a look at this situation below! 1. The reason why there are scab particles on the nipples in late pregnancy The reason why the nipples have scabs in the late pregnancy is that the secretion of the sebaceous glands on the pregnant woman's breasts increases, the sweat glands on the areola also hypertrophy, and the nipples become soft. The increase in secretions of sweat glands and sebaceous glands also acidifies the skin surface, causing the stratum corneum to soften. It may also be because the placenta secretes a large amount of progesterone during pregnancy to stimulate the development of the mammary ducts. When the breasts are squeezed in the late pregnancy, a small amount of milk is secreted, which causes the nipples to have scabs. 2. Nursing methods for nipple scabs in late pregnancy 1. Insist on using a hot towel to apply heat to the cleaned breasts every day to achieve better results of breast massage. 2. You can use the palms of both hands to gently massage around the breasts for 1 to 3 minutes, and then use five fingers to gently grasp and knead the breasts about 10 to 20 times. Daily massage can ensure the patency of the milk ducts and promote breast development. 3. You can use a mild moisturizing lotion to massage the cleaned and massaged breasts again to fully moisturize the nipple skin, making it strong and avoiding cracking during breastfeeding. But avoid excessive stimulation that may cause uterine contractions. 3. Precautions for nipple scabs in late pregnancy 1. Be careful when using soap to wash your breasts. Using soap to clean is not good for women's breast health. Therefore, to keep the breast area clean, it is best to choose warm water for washing. 2. Cleaning and care should be gentle. Pregnant women must be gentle when caring for their breasts. They should use warm water to clean the nipples and areola when taking a bath and remove milk crust. Do not rub too hard. Excessive nipple stimulation will reflexively cause uterine contractions and may lead to premature birth. 3. Choose suitable underwear. When buying a bra, you should choose one that is soft and comfortable, that can enclose your breasts without squeezing your nipples, and that can effectively support the base and sides of your breasts. |
