Hi there, wondering if anyone else has experienced this.
I breastfed my son for 16 months and only used one breast (the other had recent surgery and produced a small supply so stopped that one after a few weeks he was born.)
It’s been 4 months since I finished and I’m still -
- seeing droplets of milk every so often (not much, just enough to dab with my finger)
- experiencing a full breast ache which radiates under my arm.
For context, I have a history of fibroadenomas (non cancerous/benign tumours) and had a full ultrasound on both breasts 3 months ago as I found a lump which was another fibroadenoma. No action needed. They also found hormonal breast tissue which is wear I am experiencing the ache. I’m wondering if it’s painful because of the breastfeeding and that I made my one breast work overtime!
