How to solve breast pain and tingling

Breast swelling and pain may be caused by mastitis. Some women may be breastfeeding and sometimes have too much milk that is not squeezed out in time. At this time, the excess milk will accumulate in the breasts, causing breast inflammation. At this time, patients will feel breast pain, swelling, and itching in the nipples. There are many issues that patients with mastitis need to pay attention to. Please see the introduction below.

"Breast pain" can be said to be the most common symptom when patients visit the breast outpatient clinic. Many female friends have experienced "breast pain", which may be mild or severe, and last for a long or short time. Breast pain can manifest in many forms. Some people feel pain in only a small area, some feel pain in one breast, and some feel discomfort in both breasts. Some feel bloating, some feel tingling, and some feel radiating pain like an electric shock. Some people feel the pain is very mild, some feel unable to sleep due to the pain, and some feel it is very severe and hurts so much when touched that they dare not even take off their clothes or lift heavy objects.

Breast pain itself is divided into physiological pain and pathological pain. The so-called physiological breast pain means that there is no organic lesion in the breast itself, but it is caused by physiological changes in the body, mainly endocrine changes. Such as the following situations: premenstrual breast pain, breast pain during puberty, breast pain after abortion, breast pain in early pregnancy, or wearing a bra that is too tight or inappropriate underwear, etc. Pathological breast pain is the pain caused by breast-related diseases. The nature of the pain is diverse and is generally non-cyclical. Common causes include: acute mastitis, mastalgia, proliferative breast disease, breast trauma, etc. Of course, a very small part of the causes are breast cancer, but there is usually little pain in the early stages of breast cancer, and it usually only occurs when the tumor is huge or invades the nerves.

If a breastfeeding woman develops mild mastitis, she should stop breastfeeding and squeeze out the excess milk through a breast pump. This can prevent milk from remaining in the breast and effectively prevent new infections. After developing mastitis, do not blindly believe in some folk remedies. These remedies often have no therapeutic effect and may even delay the treatment of the disease. The correct approach is to go to the hospital for examination and treatment.
