ok, just read a few things i haven't tried........change nursing pos. try popinting baby's chin over sore area, and also take ibuprofen, euchinecia, and some other kind of herb.i think i will try changing pos. and taking the ibuprofen.........i didn't think you could get this if you nursed exclusivly ↑

yeah you have to make sure you feed baby in all kinds of positions, so all your milk ducts are getting worked. lol....if you feed them the same way every single time, that can happen, and ooooohhhh owie!! lol...good luck! :-) ↑

I've had that then I got mastitis. All you can do is massage its best in the shower and it will unclog itself. Watch you don't get mastitis if you do get antibiotics straight away its verrrrrry painful ↑
