This is not "herbals" but I think that a lymphatic massage might help here.
There is obviously some blockage that is causing the recurrence. I have
had a couple of mothers with blocked areas of the breast, which drained
with lympathic massage.
The other suggestion, of course, is lecethin. Lecethin is a food product
and, even if it is not the problem here, it would not hurt her to take it.
