Point baby's chin towards it or a piece of cabbage leaf for fifteen minutes only a couple times a day but no more as it dries milk up but good at drying clog up as well

No keep nursing as much as possible just not with cabbage on. Only a small piece of cabbage not big

I agree! Been there. I sobbed for hours. What worked best for me was nursing as much as possible with chin pointed at it. Good luck! So sorry!

Thanks everyone. I went to see a Lactation consultant who helped me with a good nursing position. I kept nursing, warm compress, n massage. My Baby loosened up some of it. Ultimately, I stuck a sterile needle into a tiny milk blister n i was relieved!
