Blocked milk duct

Lots of massaging. I used a vibrator. Massage in hot shower Gravity feeding Hang over the baby while they are laying down and massage while feeding.
Hi there, This happened to me and I ended up with a fever and body aches. I sat in a super hot tub with lots of epsom salt and soaked my boobs as long as I could and massaged them in the water. Heating pad will also help. Hope you feel better soon xo
what works best for me is to take tylenol. and ice pack. i used heat with my first child and it made it worse! it was like the dam had just kept filling up and causing more pain. and the hakka made it worse too. just keep feeding baby as is. maybe even dangle feed for gravity to help. while doing a gentle massage. always see a doctor when in doubt !
Thank you guys so much for all this amazing advice. Hopefully I can sort this out sooner rather than later.
Try to refrain from using the Hakka. Ibuprofen and ice is the recommendation for clogged ducts. Basically ice and take advil and feed as normal and it should go down in 2 days. Apparently laying a cabbage leaf on your boob can help too but they said for 20mins max as it can dry up your supply
