I have mastitis and it's been getting better. I noticed some painful hard lumps under my breast but still my breast and I can't seem to nurse on this side. I've been on antibiotics. I am use warm compressions and ice for swelling. I will also massage the area with the lumps. I cry every time and even when I hug or hold my kids...
I am nervous about losing the chance to breast feed!! I don't want to stop breastfeeding my son.
I need advice and help! I'm lost and nerves.
Anyone??
Thanks

That happened to me. What worked was hot little towel on the spot and massaging it out. U might have a clogged duct. Those hurt, feels like a rock. Hopefully this helps. Keep massaging it with hot towel

it might be both...it takes a while for the infection to go away.

I agree it might be both. You can always call the doc and ask how long does the pain last, etc. Just to be sure. It might take a few days
