<She has also noted that branching occurs within a minimum
radius of 16 millimetres from the nipple (about I/2 inch).
Jean I took a lot of convincing too until I saw it with my own eyes and I
still kept on asking "But what can I feel beneath my fingers then?" I
have
come to the conclusion that it is probably venous congestion and not milk
sinuses - I think some women have veins very close to the skin on the
areola
and this gives the impression of being a milk sinus.>
Positively can't buy that explanation, though it's a good try Cathy. You
are much too busy to debate it now or even discuss what I have found
about the histology of the subareolar tissue at the present, but I sure
would like to be in contact about it with you in the future.
<For those interested (although perhaps getting a little late now) I will
be
speaking about Donna's research and other research from the Hartmann Lab
in
a workshop (and my research on mastitis!) at the Centre for
Breastfeeding's
Conference in Orlando (16th-20th Jan). Hope to see some of you there!
(My
first time in the USA)>
No way I can get there, but would sure love to.
Hope you have a safe trip and and a wonderful lecture and good time while
here. I am holding my breath about whether I will be able to attend ILCA
in Oz in '03.
Jean
