I have a knot in breast & i'm breastfeeding. should i be worried?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Mastitis: It could be early mastitis. You can apply heat to the knot and continue breast feeding. If it is not resolving, see the doctor. You might need antibiotics. Fever or warmth of the skin would be another reason to see the doctor.
