I usually recommend moms try lecithin by taking one caupsule hourly, four times in a row. Then apply heat and breastfeed or pump. If this doesn't work, then repeat. After this, continue on maintenance lecithin every 6 hours. I have had amazing results with this method. Other thoughts - epsom salt soaks or ultrasound therapy. We have a locally trained PT who has helped many of my mom clients.
