Mastitis during breastfeeding is a common condition that causes pain and discomfort for the mother and greatly affects breastfeeding. Women who give birth for the first time due to lack of experience in breastfeeding and improper breast care and hygiene are very susceptible to mastitis.

Breast infection is an inflammation of the mammary gland tissue, usually acute and caused by bacteria. If not detected and treated promptly, breast infection can lead to more serious complications, including breast abscess with pus discharge from the breast.
