Have you ever encountered the term Mastitis?

It is a breast condition that mostly affects breastfeeding women. Symptoms include pain in the breast, swelling, warmth, redness and breast lump. It is commonly caused by blocked milk duct which can lead to milk being trapped in your breast, or bacteria entering into your breast if you have a cracked or sore nipple. To avoid it, it is advisable to pump only after 6 weeks of giving birth, and to unli latch your baby to fully drain or completely empty your breasts. If you suspect any symptoms or signs of mastitis, immediately visit your doctor to ask for some medical advice. Isa ba kayo sa mga nakaranas nito? Share n'yo naman yung experience ninyo mga Ma. 😊
