I think the last time I had it, it took 5 days to go down in terms of swelling and redness. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mastitis-when-did-your-breast-rednesssoreness-improve#post-2310746 Mon, 05 Oct 2015 10:59:15 +0000 MamaCate 2310746@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks ladies! Fever I thought broke after 24 hours but I had another really sweaty night last night. I was more worried about the redness but an glad to hear it takes a little while to clear.</p> <p>@Maysprout: thanks! First day back at work today--what a way to start :bummed: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mastitis-when-did-your-breast-rednesssoreness-improve#post-2310710 Mon, 05 Oct 2015 10:31:55 +0000 Maysprout 2310710@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My fever always went down pretty quickly. Like soon after the first dose and gone within 24 hrs. The redness and soreness took closer to a week to go away and took a couple days to start really feeling better. I also tried to pump and nurse a lot from that side to make sure it didn't get engorged. Sorry you're not feeling well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mastitis-when-did-your-breast-rednesssoreness-improve#post-2310662 Mon, 05 Oct 2015 09:50:09 +0000 Corduroy 2310662@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>About 5 days the two times I had it.</p> <p>ETA: My fever took a little over 48 hours to break this last time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mastitis-when-did-your-breast-rednesssoreness-improve#post-2310661 Mon, 05 Oct 2015 09:49:58 +0000 travellingbee 2310661@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Within 24 hours of the antibiotics my fever dropped but I was still sore for a few days. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mastitis-when-did-your-breast-rednesssoreness-improve#post-2310659 Mon, 05 Oct 2015 09:47:47 +0000 MamaCate 2310659@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Coming up on 48 hours of antibiotics for a raging case of mastitis and my boob is still very red and sore.
