Any chance you have a bleb hiding? I was in pretty serious pain Sun-Wedn, and on Thursday, noticed i had a significant area that wouldn't drain that went through Friday night. I didn't see anything, though. I had to pop T off because the pain while nursing was killing me. I literally couldn't do it. And then I found the teeny tiny blebs and once I got them out, I was able to drain them (still sore, but no rock hard rivers of milk trapped feeling, plus i could literally see it draining in the shower). But i felt bruised for at least a good day or two. I'm only feeling back to normal today. The pain and the blocked duct was really my only symptom before.

I had something similar happen to me recently. After two days of all the tricks that normally get rid of them, starting feeds on that side, massaging, warm showers, it seemed to be making it worse. I left it alone after that and a few days later realized it had gone away. I could be wrong but I think it was just a bruise somehow?

I had clogged ducts galore the first 6 months. It was so painful. Like I couldn't even put my arm down or move it too much without cringing in pain. Even if I was able to relief some pressure from the clogged duct, but didn't completely remove the clog, it would clog back up and hurt super duper bad again.

As other ladies have posted, after I was able to completely remove and empty my breast, it was sore/achy for a day or two afterwards. It got a good beating from that's for sure!
