Blocked milk duct
Since Friday I think I have had a blocked milk duct, it’s a hard lump by the side of my boob next to the armpit. I’ve tried pumping, putting baby on, massage, cold and hot compress, hot shower and nothing has helped. It’s not red or swollen so I’m not too worried about it atm but it is very uncomfortable. Going to see the doctor tomorrow if it doesn’t go… in the meantime please any advice anyone that has had one?

Try the Haaka hack (YouTube it). I did this and a legit string of mucous stuff came out of my boob and from then on the pain went away and it cleared up. Relatively warm water and magnesium salt in the haaka and on your boob will draw the blockage out
Massage on the direction of your armpit. Feed baby more often from that baby. Just had one too and above helped clear it
Use electric toothbrush on it to break it up xx

I had one, I just kept feeding my son in different positions on the side. I also stood under the shower and massaged it with my knuckles … (it hurt quite a bit not going to lie) it was okay in less than 24 hours 🤞🏻 x
