I pump at work in the day and I DL at night. I've been having a large lump on my right breast lately which my pump can't clear. only baby latching can clear it. I'm back at work today and pumping twice (once every 4 hours) and the lump is back. what should I do?

Don't let it be there for too long or it could turn into mastitis.
