How to dry up milk of one breast

2023-01-30 11:16:35
I have recently had surgical incision of left breast abscess. Incision is just around the aerola. Baby can't latch due to hardness around the incision. I can't express as the open wound is still healing. What can be done to dry up milk from the affected breast?
