Please consult your Gynaecologist where you had your delivery. They will express the milk from the breast and the breast will become soft. You should also learn how to express the milk out from the breast. You may have to do it repeatedly.
They will also teach you how to look after your breasts.
If you don't follow their instructions you may get breast abscess.
