Breastfeeding is a special and critical period for expectant mothers, as it puts a lot of pressure on them and their bodies are relatively weak. So, what should we do about mammary cysts during lactation? What's the reason? Let's take a look.
What to do with mammary cysts during lactation
Firstly, there are various treatment methods for mammary gland cysts during lactation. If a patient develops a large cyst, they should promptly seek medical examination. Surgical methods can be used to remove the cyst site, or surgical drainage can be used for adjustment.
Secondly, the symptoms of breast cysts are quite obvious, and patients may cause lumps in the breast area or breast swelling and pain. Depending on the severity of the cyst, appropriate treatment should be given. If there is suppuration and infection in the cyst area, breastfeeding should be stopped in a timely manner and milk should be emptied.
Thirdly, breast cysts can have a significant impact on women's physical health. It is recommended to go to a regular hospital for examination and use color ultrasound to determine the condition. If the symptoms are not severe, it is important to maintain smooth breastfeeding. After the baby has finished sucking milk, it should be emptied in a timely manner.
What are the causes of mammary cysts during lactation
Firstly, infants have limited effective sucking frequency. Many people think that once they have breast milk, they just need to wait until their child is hungry to breastfeed, but that's not the case. Newborns do not have a high demand for milk, but the rate of milk formation is very fast. If the mother does not allow the child to absorb more milk, the phenomenon of breast swelling will become more and more severe, ultimately leading to acute mastitis.
Secondly, the feeding posture is incorrect. If the mother does not use the correct posture during breastfeeding, the baby will not be able to hold the nipple well, making it difficult to suckle and the milk cannot be smoothly discharged. The consequence of this is not only causing breast cysts, but also incorrect sucking can lead to cracked nipples, causing great pain to mothers.
In summary, mammary gland cysts during lactation can still be treated. The most obvious symptom of mammary gland cysts is a lump in the chest, which is quite serious. Moreover, many mothers breastfeed less frequently, which is also one of the reasons for this phenomenon. However, mothers should also relax, adjust their mentality, and be content with what they have received.
