A. many times and the most common cause would be due to accumulation of milk clotss and sometimes it can be neurogenic pain and sometimes it might be a part any local mass like lymph nodes or tissue pain. if it is not improving with simple massage as well as simples hot compresses and expression of accumulated milk then meet your doctor at the earliest for local examination. you can take paracetamol for pain.

Q. #AskTheExpert My 20 month old son doesn’t eat. He has always been fussy with food and now, it’s come to a point where he runs away when he sees a bowl / plate in my hand. He is better at feeding himself but after a bite, he starts playing with food and throwing it around. I give him around 24 ounces of milk in 24 hours. No junk in between. Thank you
