How to do postpartum breast fever? Many women will encounter problems they don't understand after giving birth. In fact, this situation is normal. Being a mother for the first time needs to learn all kinds of parenting knowledge and breastfeeding knowledge. Many mothers basically feed in a feeding posture every time after delivery, such as sitting feeding, which can easily lead to milk accumulation in one place. Over time, it is easy to cause mastitis. Breast fever is a very healthy performance, indicating that it is normal for the breast inside the breast to have enough milk, but if it is accompanied by breast pain, it may be the cause of the disease. The more common disease is acute mastitis. In this case, it is recommended to go to the hospital for an ultrasound examination to make a definite diagnosis.
Before massaging the breast, you need to apply a hot towel to the breast, and adjust the water temperature to about 60 degrees, so as to avoid the breast of the lying-in woman being scalded by hot water. One hand should hold the lower side of the breast together, and the other hand should massage radially from the bottom of the breast to the nipple. This massage method needs to be repeated with both hands, and it also needs to be gently patted and shaken while massaging until the lump in the breast disappears, so that the milk will gradually flow smoothly.
When the baby drinks milk, when the mother feels that the breast is still very hot and swollen, the extra milk can be squeezed out by massage. Too much milk residue will not only cause breast swelling and pain, but also block nipples and form lumps, which is not conducive to baby smoking. Too much milk is not conducive to the secretion of fresh milk. If it is squeezed out from time to time, it will affect secretion. During breastfeeding, mothers can reduce foods that will stimulate the increase of milk, such as brown sugar, pig's trotters, chicken and male meat. Switch to light and healthy food, after all, what mothers eat is what babies eat.
What is the cause of nipple fever? First of all, you should calculate the time of your period. If you are going to have your period now, it is a normal physiological reaction that your breasts become hot or painful due to the change of body hormone level some time before menstruation. If you are not going to have your period, it may be caused by endocrine hormone disorder or breast disease.
If the postpartum mother likes to eat sweets and rarely supplements water, it is easy to block milk. This is mainly because the source of breast milk is the mother's blood. If the daily diet is sweet, it will increase the blood viscosity and slow down the circulation, which will easily cause breast blockage. Especially on holidays, lactating mothers should pay more attention to restraining their appetite. After delivery, the new mother is weak and needs to drain the blood in the uterus, such as some cold and spicy food, and try not to eat it. This is mainly to prevent cold food from damaging gastrointestinal health, and to prevent cold food from affecting lochia and causing abdominal pain. Delivery will cause maternal blood loss and body fluid damage, and often there will be yin deficiency and fever.
