[Ongoing breastfeeding with breast abscess].
Mastitis puerperalis can frequently be complicated by a breast abscess. Immediate diagnosis and treatment are crucial if breastfeeding is to be continued and for the prevention of further complications. Somatic and psychological interventions are of importance for recovery. Specialised nurses and midwives have an important impact on the promotion of well-being of affected mothers.
