Mastitis and nipple agony

1 reply

So at nearly 6 months I have Mastitis. Started when I woke up on wed. Terrible chills and nausea, breast mottled red, nipple agony on latching. Started antibiotic on thUr along with ibuprofen and cabbage leaves, hot showers. Couldn't stand pain to feed from that side so have been expressing. Breast redness and soreness is reducing but nipple is still agony. I have had quite a bit of nipple pain in the past but this is something new. Is there anything else i can do to help nipple heal quickly?
Thanks
