I'm in so much pain...

SCBride2007

I have ANOTHER plugged duct, with makes my 18th since beginning breastfeeding, and I'm already in the middle of treating a severe case of mastitis. This clog is so so so painful, and I've tried all the tricks I know: nursing often and with her chin pointed toward the clog, wet warm compresses, hot showers, etc. I am in SO much pain. What can I do??

OMG you poor girl, I am so sorry. I have no advice but I hope you feel better soon. Can you try using a shield?

massage into a shower head (if you can control the flow to go low). I'm sorry! I had mastitis with both kids and I just about gave up with BF after that, but stuck thru it till my supply went low.  GL!  Call your lactation in the morning to make sure it's not another bout of mastitis or something? antibiotics are the only thing that works on that from what i've been told
