sore right breast?!

edited November 2011 in Breastfeeding
today my right boob has had a dull ache deep inside that is kinda radiating to my right shoulder and armpit. i don't feel like it's a clogged duct and so far i've taken a warm shower, massaged it, i've pumped 2x, nursed my son on that side a few times...and it is still bothering me. it doesn't feel warm to the touch or anything, so i don't think it's mastitis....idk though. it's new and very annoying. anyone experience this/know what it is? @homebirthadvocate @ashleyfew @bahamamama4828 @anyone??

  • what are other symptoms @amab13? if that's it how do i take care of it?
  • I felt the same way thought clogged duct I have thrush. It gets worse my nipples burn to breast feed. I thought it was a bad latch. Catch it before it gets worse.
  • Antibiotic for you and baby call Dr. Or there are some herbal ways but Idk them. Is your lo tongue white? You can have it and baby not yet but baby still needs to be treated. So do you.
  • no his tongue isn't white and it doesn't burn when he's feeding. i'll call the pedi tomorrow and talk to the nurse just in case! thank you @samantha
  • Mine didn't start burning till days later after the pain in shoulder started. Gl I hope its not thrush it sucks I am miserable every feeding.
  • sorry i just now seen i was tagged! :) yup i would go with everyones suggestions. but sometimes a burning feeling is your letdown, mine burns i dont have thrush but i wouldnt rule that out
