hot water shower and pumping between feeds helped <u>me</u>..but if it persists it's better to show it to a <u>doctor</u>

It is possible that a duct is blocked due to infrequent feeding. It is normal and expected to happen but if left unattended can get infected. At the moment since there is no pain or discomfort just hot fermentation and gentle massage a few times a day should help. Also ensure that the undergarments are comfortable. If it does not reduce in 24-36 hours of above then it is best to have a check up with the gynac.
