Nursing care of lactation scars: matters needing attention
Lactating mothers need to pay special attention to the care of scars. This article will introduce the matters needing attention in nursing breast-feeding scars, and some methods that are helpful for scar recovery.

Don't take medicine at will.

Special care should be taken when taking drugs during lactation. Drugs will not only affect the mother's milk secretion, but also may be passed on to the baby through the milk, thus affecting its growth and development. Therefore, you should consult a doctor before taking the medicine.

Pay attention to nursing hygiene

Before feeding, please wipe the nipple with a clean towel to ensure hygiene. After feeding, please wipe the nipple and baby's mouth again to make the baby feel comfortable.

Keep plenty of milk

Pay attention to replenish enough water and nutrition during lactation to ensure adequate milk. Reasonable diet and adequate water intake are the guarantee of adequate milk.

Get rid of the excess milk.

If the baby has enough milk, it is recommended that the mother suck it out with a breast pump. Excess milk can be stored in the cold storage for a rainy day. If there is too much milk, you can consider dumping it or donating it. At the same time, please make sure the breast pump is clean to prevent mastitis.

Scar care

Lactating mothers need to pay special attention to the care of scars. In addition to avoiding the use of irritating drugs, we can also promote scar recovery by eating, hot compress and applying aloe vera.
