Breast swelling and pain during ovulation

Breast tenderness is a very common symptom and usually goes away after the breasts are empty. If you're feeling unwell, you can try the following to relieve symptoms:

1. Hot compress: During breast tenderness, hot compress can be used to relieve symptoms. Placing a hot water bottle on a towel and then placing the towel over your breasts can help relax your breasts and relieve symptoms.

2. Massage: Gently massaging the breasts can help promote blood circulation and relieve breast swelling and pain.

3. Wear the right bra: Wearing the right bra can help relieve breast engorgement. Choose bras that are the right size and shape to support your breasts without feeling constrictive.

4. Avoid stress: Avoiding excessive stress can also help relieve breast tenderness.

If breast tenderness persists for days or weeks or is accompanied by other symptoms such as pain, fever, swelling, or increased flow, it is recommended to consult a doctor. A doctor can review symptoms and determine if further testing or treatment is needed.
