Mastitis or clogged duct? UPDATE
This is my 4th baby and I’ve had mastitis twice before. The first two times I had it, I had a fever, red swollen breast and body aches.
My left breast has been hurting since last night and I know I have a clogged duct. I think I was able to get the duct un-clogged because the spot is soft again and the pain is not as bad.
However this morning when I first got up I was very light headed, I got dizzy and broke out in a cold sweat. I feel better now except I have body aches.
Could it still be mastitis if I have body aches but no fever and there’s no redness/swelling yet?
Or is this a result of the clogged duct and will go away in its own?
Update:
It’s mastitis. I just took my temp and it’s 102 and now there’s red streaking on the breast that hurts.
