HI Megan,
Did anyone try to use ultrasound on this mother's plug ducts? I have not
seen this used but have read about it being very helpful.
I have also found that women who have tendencies toward lumpy breast have
more plugged ducts. This is just an observation that I have seen a few mothers.
When palpating the lumps if they feel round instead of a more finger like
feeling I had the mothers just leave them alone. If the mothers did too much
manipulation then that quadrant of the breast would become firmer.
I would be curious is others have observed this.
