Ultrasound Treatment for Mastitis

Mastitis is inflammation of the breast tissue that commonly occurs during breastfeeding. It can develop when milk flow becomes restricted, leading to swelling, tenderness, redness, and sometimes flu-like symptoms.

Early support can help resolve symptoms quickly and prevent complications.

Early signs may include a firm or painful area of the breast, warmth, redness, fatigue, or body aches. Some women also experience fever or chills.

If symptoms are escalating or you’re feeling unwell, prompt assessment is important.

Therapeutic ultrasound uses gentle sound waves to reduce inflammation and support milk flow. It can assist in relieving blocked ducts and localised breast tenderness.

Treatment is non-invasive and designed to support natural recovery.

This treatment may help if you’re experiencing:

• Blocked ducts

• Recurrent mastitis

• Localised breast tenderness

• Engorgement not resolving

• Early signs of inflammation
