Acute suppurative mastitis

Acute mastitis is an acute purulent infection of the breast. Almost all patients are postpartum lactating women, especially the first-born women. If milk stasis does not flow out of the breast, and bacteria enter the breast from the damaged nipple, it may cause inflammation.
