Hot shower is good, if you've got one -- you can get hot water on the relevant bit and adjust angles more easily than in the bath. Ideally hot shower and massage, then feed DS on that side again, then another hot shower and massage, then another feed... personally I always managed to clear mine within about three showers (and as a bonus was very clean... ).

If you've cleared it it is likely to still be a bit sore (as you say, it's been aching and then you've had a go at it on top of that) but it should start to feel better pretty quickly. I'd be inclined to have another bath after you've nursed your DS and see how it feels then.

I never had a white spot with a blocked duct either -- I think it depends on where the blockage is? (I have read a Wise Post from tiktok on that subject but have managed to forget it all).
