The pain in breast while feeding the baby can happen due to a breast infection like mastitis. Mastitis is common in lactating women.
It is characterized by pain, swelling, redness of the breast. In case of presence of breast abscess fever can also be seen. The treatment involves taking pain killers and oral broad spectrum antibiotics . Doing a hot compress will also help in reducing pain .
