Please I need a Doctor in the house to solve this riddle for me.

My wife who is with a 3 months old baby is experiencing occasional biting pain in her bosoms since the baby who is entirely on bosom milk feeding was 1 month old and it is given me heartache.
I would like to know: 1) What it means. 2) What can be done to stop it etc.

Urgent and precised medical professional response will be appreciated.

So the pain has lasted for about 3months? Is it on both breasts? How long does each episode of the pain last? Does she have fever,probably comes with the pain? Does she have lump in any of the breasts?

*am tired and sleepy,hope to revisit tomorrow*

Thanks @centje. The occasional biting pain comes on the two bosom at different times, though far in-between time. The pain lasts on the average of ten to twenty minutes. She has no fever. She has checked the bosoms and she told me there are no lump in either of them. I hope my answers will enable you to enlighten us on what to do and what is happening to her. Reply asap.

Its most likely just a physiological process,
Breast feeding mothers can sometimes have their breast engorged with milk. Especially if the baby is not on exclusive breast feeding or the breast is producing milk far more than the baby eats.

She can see a gynaecologist to be sure its not pathologic.

However,based on my line of thought...she can do the following...

Breast feed the baby more often,better still do exclusive breast feeding.

Use breast pump to express milk. She can either discard it or feed the baby from the expressed milk.

Take a warm shower just before breast feeding

Massage the breast during breast feeding

If the pain is restricted to the nipple only,check for crack around the nipple,or she may not be latching the nipple properly.

I guess she has not resumed menstruation?

Pls the unmentionable is ni*pple

Once again thank you.
She has not resume mensturation and She is on strictly bosom feeding for the baby. The biting pain is not on or by the ni.pple but by the centre of the bosom. She said whenever she experienced the pain the bosom will be rush-filled with milk.
