I have blocked milk ducts for 4 days now. I only have a hard lump in my right chest, no fever, no pain, only pain when pressed. I applied warm compresses, massage, pumped milk but it didn't help. So what should I do now when I have blocked milk ducts, a hard lump in my chest, no pain, no fever?

Blocked milk ducts are a condition in which the milk duct system is blocked, preventing milk from flowing out. This condition often occurs in mothers in the first few days after giving birth and during breastfeeding.

Blocked milk ducts are a fairly common phenomenon in postpartum mothers, due to the blocked mammary gland system, so the milk cannot flow out. If not treated promptly, it will reduce the amount of milk secreted daily, in addition, causing milk stagnation in the ducts, which can easily cause mastitis, breast abscesses and can cause fibrocystic bands or fibroadenomas later on.
