Mastitis Serous

Mastitis is an inflammation of the mammary gland, and serous is one of its types, the most common. Mastitis occurs in most breastfeeding women (about 80%) and can occur during any period of breastfeeding, especially often in the first 2-3 months, when a lot of milk is produced. But there may also be non-feeding factors for inflammation of the mammary glands - injuries, frostbite, infections or inadequate use of compression garments. These factors will also be the pathogenetic basis for various types of mastitis. Vascular chains connect the lobules and milk ducts, control the function of lactocytes and isolate them from exudate.
