Clogged milk and mastitis
Why postpartum women have blocked milk rays?
Immediately after birth, the mammary glands begin to produce milk, producing milk through the milk ducts. If the milk is not allowed to drain, it becomes stagnant in the breast tissue, causing the glands to swell, pinching the milk ducts and causing local clogging of the ducts.
Usually, after the baby is born, if the baby is immediately breastfed, the baby will be full, making the milk gland constantly will not clog.



But if the baby catches the wrong pacifier, the baby is not full or for another reason, the baby is not yet the mother, it is easy to clog the milk.
Besides, there are some mothers with too thick milk, more milk than the baby's needs, causing stagnant milk to clog the milk.
Clogged milk leads to mastitis
When the milk duct is clogged, there is a stagnation of milk. Excessive milk retention causes a non-infectious local inflammatory response of breast tissue, accompanied by signs such as enlarged breasts such as swelling, reddishness and pain.
If a superinfection occurs, the blocked breast tissue will have an inflammatory infection, often called an "abscess". Symptoms such as mastitis are not infection but worse.
- Itchy breasts, burning pain.
- Swollen, red breasts.




- Pressing gently on the chest feels tight and painful.
- Mom has a high fever, chills and fatigue.
- Unsecured milk, little or pus secretion.
However, it is difficult to differentiate between the signs of non-infectious mastitis and infectious mastitis. As soon as I notice any abnormalities, I need to check them to handle them promptly.
Treatments for clogged milk and mastitis
Breast abscess should be prescribed antibiotics, n.
