Ductal ectasia, breastfeeding

2024-04-29 16:16:00
I was feeling a lump(not round) near the edge of right nipple,I got the breast scan done.It showed ductal ectasia, I had read online that it happens to women during menopause, is it common in breastfeeding as well.Will it go away on its own? Is it like clogging of milk ducts, it is not cancer right.
