Milk deposition: Milk deposition is beneficial to the growth and reproduction of invasive bacteria. The reasons are as follows: ① nipple is too small or invaginated, which hinders breastfeeding, and pregnant women fail to correct nipple invagination in time before delivery, making it difficult for babies to suck milk; ② Too much milk, incomplete emptying, and the parturient did not empty the excess milk in the breast in time. ③ Obstruction of mammary duct, inflammation of mammary duct itself, tumor and external compression,
Fibers falling off the bra can also block the mammary duct.
2. When the nipple invades, it is difficult for babies to suck milk, which is easy to cause damage around the nipple, which is the main way for bacteria to invade along lymphatic vessels and cause infection. In addition, the baby often sleeps with the nipple, which will also make the inflammation in the baby's mouth directly invade and spread to the mammary duct, and then spread to the interstitial breast to cause suppurative infection. Staphylococcus aureus is a common pathogen.
3. There are two causes of chronic mastitis: first, acute mastitis is untreated and improperly treated, such as improper use of antibiotics; Second, the onset of the disease is a chronic inflammatory process, mostly due to the formation of induration due to poor milk deposition.
Self-care methods for acute mastitis;
1. Early massage and breast enhancement are the key. Patients can gently massage with their fingers along the nipple direction, press and push to make the milk flow to the opening, and suck out the milk with a breast pump to clear the blocked mammary gland orifice. Empty the milk as much as possible after inhalation to avoid accumulation.
2. Keep nipples clean during lactation, wash nipples with warm water, breastfeed regularly, and empty milk as much as possible every time. If there is too much milk, the baby can't finish sucking it, and the milk should be emptied with the help of the breast pump. But pay attention to fever, and it is not advisable to suck milk when the body temperature reaches 39 degrees Celsius.
It is not advisable to let the baby sleep with the nipple. After breastfeeding, the breasts should be held up with a bra.
4. The diet should be light, easy to digest and avoid spicy.
Poor mood is also related to this disease. It is necessary to persuade patients to relieve their troubles, eliminate bad emotions and pay attention to mental conditioning.
