Lump in my breast while feeding
I have delivered a baby in APRIL and constantly feeding my baby as well as removing the extra milk using the breast pump. However, I developed a lump 4 days ago and it is painful. I tried doing a bit of message but got zero results. The skin above the lump has turned red and I am worried it may affect my baby. Can anyone suggest any medicine fo it?

It will be a breast abscess , u need to immediately consult a surgeon. The abscess needs to be drained otherwise baby will get infection.
