Breast Pain Posted: 02-07-07 13:40pm
Okay, i'm having a serious pain in my
breast. It feels lumpy and achy almost
like it did when I needed to empty it from
breastfeeding. Yesterday in the shower
it leaked milk. I've been discreetly
massaging the lump all morning, even went
to the bathroom to see if there was any
milk there and nothing. Do you think it
could be a clogged duct? If so, how the
hell do I deal with it?

Oh man, how long has it been now since
you've stopped breastfeeding?
Do you think it's been there since? Like
unnoticed and unpainful?
I'd say to call your gyno just in case.
Something just doesn't sound right about a
lump and strange discharge.
I don't know much about that kind of
thing, but if it's not milk, than I don't
know what it could be!

I think it's milk, it looked exactly the
same. I stopped breastfeeding about 6
1/2 - 7 months ago.

Occasionally i'll still leak. But it's
only like a few teaspoons. This is the
first time i've had this achiness though.
It feels like the clogged ducts I used
to get.
I have no idea what else it could be...

It could be a clogged duct. I had one
recently since I stopped breast feeding.
I also had them back when I was tryign to
let my breast dry up from hunter. But I
coudlnt' tell you if that is what you
have. I would put a hot compress over it
and rub it too.
