Is mastitis puncture good?

Mastitis is a breast disease that is extremely harmful to the body and must be treated promptly. Breast piercing is also a treatment for mastitis. The side effects of mastitis puncture are relatively small, and it does not affect the appearance of the breasts and breastfeeding. The treatment effect is obvious, and it is a treatment method that can be tried.

1. It does not affect the beauty of the breast. The wound left after the puncture is just a needle hole, and it will heal and disappear on its own after a while. Compared with the traditional operation to drain pus, it has the advantages of no scar and no effect on the beauty of the breast.

2. It does not affect breastfeeding, because the puncture protects the integrity of the mammary gland. Once the pus in the abscess is drained, the abscess cavity can be quickly closed and breastfeeding can be resumed in time. Before surgery to drain the pus, in order to avoid milk fistula, weaning is required and breastfeeding cannot be continued. In addition, the mammary duct may be cut off during the operation, resulting in the inability to breastfeed after the operation.

3. Short recovery time. After surgery and drainage, the patient's hospital stay is 1 to 2 weeks, while puncture only takes 1 to 2 days, which greatly shortens the patient's recovery time;

4. After the puncture and drainage, it does not mean that the treatment of mastitis is over. The purpose of puncture is to drain the pus in the abscess in order to prevent the disease from worsening, and it is only a symptomatic treatment. In order to prevent the recurrence of abscesses and to completely cure mastitis, some rehabilitation treatments are required after puncture.

5. Mastitis not only harms the health of the mother, but also affects the healthy growth of the baby. If it is not treated, it may even cause sepsis. Therefore, if a woman suspects that she has mastitis, it is best to go to the hospital for examination as soon as possible, and take timely treatment measures after diagnosis to maintain the health of herself and her baby.
