A 30-year-old woman approached the practitioner complaining of severe pain in her breasts. Four months ago, she had delivered a baby and a month later, the pain started for which she was prescribed painkillers. After a month the pain had worsened to such an extent that she was taking 5 tablets of paracetamol per day along with other prescribed painkillers with no relief. The pain was so intense that she was terrified at the sight of her own baby and wanted to stop breastfeeding but kept postponing this, fearing the baby would not get sufficient nutrition. Though the baby was exclusively breastfed, the mother was producing excess milk which appeared to have caused several lumps in her breast. In the last two days, the patient had also developed constipation with hard and bloody stools. On 16 Aug 2019, the practitioner gave:

#1. CC2.3 Tumours & Growths + CC3.7 Circulation + CC8.3 Breast disorders + CC10.1 Emergencies + CC20.4 Muscles & Supportive tissue…BD in oil for massage on the affected region, followed by fomentation.

#2. CC4.4 Constipation + CC4.10 Indigestion + CC8.1 Female tonic + CC15.1 Mental & Emotional tonic + CC18.5 Neuralgia + #1…6TD for three days followed by TDS 

In addition, the patient was advised to take lots of water to ease constipation.

After four days on 20 Aug, there was 50% relief from the pain as well as constipation. On 26 Aug, the patient voluntarily stopped taking all the painkillers as the pain was manageable. On 30 Aug, #1 was discontinued. On 17 Sept, she reported 100% relief from all symptoms, so the dosage of #2 was tapered down until finally stopped on 18 Dec 2019. She continued to breastfeed her baby for a year and a half and her problem never recurred!
