Hi, I'm getting a bit desperate and hoping for some help. I've had a large blockage in my right boob for 1 week now. I have tried absolutely everything to clear it, massage, heat packs, cold packs, Epsom salts in a haakkaa, dangle feeding, changing feeding position...I even asked my husband to try and suck it out and nothing!

The blockage is about the size of a lemon milk is still passing but a lot less than usual. Is there anything else I can do? I'm really at a loss.

Xx
