Lots and lots of warm soaks. Have mom lean over a bowl of warm water.

Applying pressure behind the plug to help dislodge it. And lecithin has been
known to help with repeated plugged ducts.

Epsom Salt baths will also help promote the healing. 1T. salts to 1C. warm
water.

And don't forget to apply Lansinoh to prevent scabbing. Scabbing can restrict flow.
