Описание: 😔 Mastitis: Mothers’ Struggle
😔 Often more painful than childbirth

Mastitis is often caused by a blocked milk duct, leading to inflammation and infection.

Factors such as improper latching, engorgement, or bacteria entering the breast can contribute to mastitis.

Symptoms of mastitis include breast pain, redness, and swelling, as well as flu-like symptoms such as fever and fatigue. The affected area may also feel warm and tender.

To address mastitis:

✨ Ensure proper breastfeeding technique and positioning to prevent blocked ducts.
✨ Nurse frequently and empty the breast completely during feeding.
✨ Apply warm compresses to the affected area to promote milk flow.
✨ Maintain good breast hygiene and wear loose-fitting clothing.
✨ Consult a healthcare provider if symptoms persist for a proper diagnosis and treatment, which may include antibiotics in some cases.

How Lactation Massage Helps:

✨ Lactation massage can help alleviate mastitis by reducing inflammation, promoting drainage of blocked ducts, and relieving pain.
✨ Specific massage techniques, combined with acupressure points, can release tension, improve milk flow, and aid in the resolution of mastitis.
✨ The massage also softens swelling tissues, aiding in the drainage of blocked ducts.
