A member asked:

Feel lumps in breasts close to nipples. not rock hard, but also not squishy. they seem to move a bit. i'm breastfeeding and dr says it's milk ducts?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Probably!: Lumps and bumps during breastfeeding are very common, and most often a result of clogged ducts. Regular breast feeding, or pumping, with the help of warm compresses are the best ways to help prevent and treat these clogged ducts. However, any lump that doesn't improve in 72 hours, redness, fevers, or intense pain should be evaluated by your doctor.
