I have got mastitis in my right breast which looks like an orange peel covered red cannon ball.
Am 4 tablets into a course of Fluclox, and am taking paracetamol and codeine plus ibuprofen. It is still extremely painful though and I do feel quite pantsy.
In the left side of my breast I've got an enormous lumpy area and although I am trying to continue feeding (OWW-EE!) as normally as possible, or expressing, I cannot seem to unblock those ducts at all.
Does anyone have any suggestions of how I can help the situation. Am scared that this will never get better and that the huge lumpy area will becaome an abcess. What do I do?
