Engorgement/over production

Ana

Hello mamas! I’ve been engorged for like 5 days now. Delivered baby last Friday the 17th.

Armpits are engorged and I believe I’m producing to much constantly having to empty! And hard to get baby to latch for nipple being to firm. I need help! Or advise.

Every time I pump it’s around 4-6oz and I feel like it empties the breast but not my armpits can this be clogged ducts, If so how do I unclog and empty successfully?
