A 27-year-old mother who just had a baby 3 weeks ago presents to your office with a complaint of almost one week of bilateral breast pain and tenderness. She states she works full time and only gets 10 minutes every 4 hours to pump, so she is unable to completely empty her breasts while at work.

- Breast engorgement
- Bilateral mastitis
- Bilateral galactoceles
- Breast abscess
- Normal symptoms of breastfeeding
A 32-year-old new mother presents to your office 6 weeks post-partum because she feels a lump in her left breast. It is slightly tender, but otherwise not too painful. She denies any fevers or difficulties breastfeeding, although it seems her newborn son prefers feeding on the right breast. What is the patient's diagnosis and how is it best treated?
- Galactocele, treat with increasing breastfeeding and warm compress
- Breast abscess that must be drained
- Unilateral mastitis that should be treated with antibiotics
- Infected milk duct, treat with drainage and antibiotics
- Blocked milk duct, treat by avoiding breastfeeding in the affected breast until the blockage clears
A 29-year-old breastfeeding mother presents to your office 4 weeks postpartum with a painful right breast. She feels somewhat malaised and tired for the past 3 days and reports intermittent fevers. On physical exam, her right breast is engorged, tender to palpation, has erythematous streaking, and feels warm to the touch. No masses are palpated. The left breast appears normal. What is the appropriate treatment for this patient's condition?
- Antibiotic treatment and continue breastfeeding
- Drainage of the abscess and antibiotic treatment
- Stop breastfeeding while on antibiotic treatment
