Clogged duct (exclusively pumping)

Natalie

Help! I have had the WORST clogged milk duct and I am at a loss on how to clear it. I have tried literally everything - taking ibuprofen, sunflower lecithin, hot shower and massage, dangle pumping, alternating heating pads and cold packs, epsom salt in Haakaa, vibrating massager, everything! I’m going to see if my husband can help suck it out, but if that doesn’t work, I am out of ideas. I’m afraid it’s going to lead to mastitis and I’m even more afraid I am going to have to have it drained. It’s so large, it’s the whole right side of my right breast and is backing up into my armpit. Any other suggestions??
