Armpit lump

[december]

Hi, my DS is now 6 days old, and i am BF. Anyhow, today i have noticed a lump under my armpit,, i did a google on it, and could relate to a blocked milk duct. has this happened to anyone else.it is very painful? thanks

I've never had one, but they can be quite painful? Put a warm washer on it and massage it when you put bub on to feed

Good luck and let us know how you go.

Hi I had one with my little one, i just massaged it in the shower with warm water on it and it took a while to go down, even now it comes and goes a bit. Mine was only sore if i pushed on it. I also massaged it as bub was feeding to help it move threw and break up.

Hope that helps.
