Home remedies can ease tenderness
Breast tenderness can happen for many reasons. If a woman is pregnant or if she is having her menstrual cycle, breast tenderness and soreness can occur. Diet, nutrition, hormones, retaining water and excess weight can also trigger breast tenderness. If a woman is having breast tenderness all the time, fibro cysts might be the cause. When fibro cysts are the reason for tenderness there may be lumps in the breasts and one should see a doctor immediately. For other, less serious causes of breast tenderness, there are things one can do naturally from home to ease the pain.
Instructions
1. Place a couple of raw cabbage leaves on the breasts and cover with a towel. Leave on for about and hour and the tenderness and soreness of the breasts will ease within at least three hours. Covering the cabbage leaves with a towel is optional. You may cover the cabbage with anything you want or not cover them at all.
2. Take a bag of ice, crushed ice is best, wrap the bag of ice in a towel and place on your breasts. If you don’t have a bag of ice put some in a freezer bag and don’t forget to wrap it with a towel. While laying with the bag of ice on your breasts, try to find a comfortable position and stay that way. Try not to move. Within an hour the tenderness and soreness will be gone.
3. Use ground flaxseed in your food or drink. Add about 1 tsp. of the ground flaxseed in anything you eat or drink. Whole flaxseed is not digestible so you will want to grind it up in a blender or food processor. You can add the ground flaxseed to yogurt, protein shakes, cereal or whatever you want. Keep any ground flaxseed in the freezer while waiting to be used again.
4. Use a heating pad or a heated towel and place on your breasts to ease the pain. Leave the heated compress on for 15 to 20 minutes at a time or until it has eased the pain from breast tenderness.
