Having something on hand to apply matters, because the standard advice of heat, massage and continued feeding is easier to follow with a purpose-made oil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe blend leads with mullein and calendula, with red clover, phytolacca root and lobelia. Phytolacca — poke root — is the traditional Western herb for lymphatic congestion in breast tissue specifically, and it is why this formula exists in the form it does.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eApplied topically to the affected breast as needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSt. Francis Herb Farm has been making herbal preparations in Ontario since 1988, using certified organic alcohol and distilled water, and stating extraction ratios so you know the strength of what you are taking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho St. Francis Breast Oil Is For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is for breastfeeding women dealing with mastitis or blocked ducts, and it is worth having before you need it rather than sourcing at 2am with a fever.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e**Consult a health care practitioner before use in order to exclude a diagnosis of inflammatory breast cancer**, which has symptoms similar to mastitis. That is the manufacturer's own caution and it is a serious one — inflammatory breast cancer is frequently mistaken for infection, and a red, swollen, painful breast that does not respond to treatment needs proper investigation. Mastitis with fever also often needs antibiotics rather than management alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSt. Francis Breast Oil Features and Benefits\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStimulates Lymphatic Flow\u003c\/strong\u003e — Formulated specifically for lymphatic congestion in breast tissue.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFor Mastitis and Breast Abscess\u003c\/strong\u003e — Two specific conditions rather than general breast care.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePhytolacca Root\u003c\/strong\u003e — The traditional Western herb for breast lymphatic congestion.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWith Mullein and Calendula\u003c\/strong\u003e — Two classic herbs for inflamed and irritated tissue.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTopical Application\u003c\/strong\u003e — Applied directly to the affected area as needed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMade in Ontario Since 1988\u003c\/strong\u003e — St. Francis Herb Farm has been making herbal preparations in Canada for over thirty years.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e50ml Bottle\u003c\/strong\u003e — A practical size for an oil applied as needed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-section\" id=\"faq-st-francis-breast-oil\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eProduct Information\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003e➕ What is St. Francis Breast Oil?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"padding-left:25px; margin-top:5px; padding-bottom:10px;\"\u003eOur Breast Oil is a topical herbal oil blend that stimulates the flow of lymphatic fluid from the breast tissue, and is excellent for use by women dealing with mastitis or a breast abscess.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003e➕ How much do I take?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"padding-left:25px; margin-top:5px; padding-bottom:10px;\"\u003eAdult women: apply topically to the affected breast or breasts as needed.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003e➕ What sizes are available?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"padding-left:25px; margin-top:5px; padding-bottom:10px;\"\u003eAvailable in 50ml.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003e➕ Is it made in Canada?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"padding-left:25px; margin-top:5px; padding-bottom:10px;\"\u003eYes.
