What should I do if the milk rises after weaning?

If breast-feeding women only feel slight breast augmentation, they can use hot towels or hand warmers (not feeling hot) to hot compress nipples and areola (pay attention to avoid areola and nipple parts, because the skin in these two places is tender. )。 It can make the breast block blocked in the breast unobstructed and improve the breast circulation. Hot compress 15 minutes each time and 3-5 times a day will obviously alleviate the symptoms of breast enhancement.

The second method to solve the slight breast swelling is massage, which is a more effective method. It is best to massage after breast hot compress. There are many methods of breast massage. The general method is to hold the unilateral breast with both hands and massage alternately from the bottom of the breast to the nipple. Massage 30 times clockwise and 30 times counterclockwise. Pay attention to squeeze the remaining milk in the container. If you are uncertain or inconvenient, you can go to a professional obstetrics and gynecology department for massage.

The third way to solve the slight increase in milk is to soak the breast with warm water. Put a basin of warm water on your knees, bend your upper body to your knees, soak your breasts in the basin, and gently shake your breasts to make the milk flow out more easily by gravity. This can relieve the symptoms of milk swelling.

If the milk is swollen seriously and the pain is severe, it is necessary to pump the milk manually or electrically with a breast pump to avoid milk accumulation. If the lactating mother repeatedly increases the milk, it is necessary to use the breast pump in time, otherwise it will easily cause breast inflammation and need intravenous drip.

If the pain of rising milk is serious, you can use cold compress to relieve the pain. The premise is to suck the milk out with a breast pump and then apply cold compress around the areola. Note that the water should not be too cold at first, and cold water can be added after a period of cold compress.
