Abstract:
The breast is a wonderful organ, rich in innervation and hormonal receptors, and therefore highly sensitive. The lactation period is one of maturation and intense organ activity where the breast is exposed to potent physical and emotional stimuli – both positive and negative. For many women the lactation journey is a persistently painful experience. What are the basic tenets of current pain neuroscience, and how can they help us support breastfeeding dyads who are in distress due to persistent pain?
