Blocked Milk Flow? Tangerines to the Rescue! A kind-hearted netizen (Ice Noble, QQ: 451719654): Today, I’d like to share a simple and effective folk remedy for blocked milk flow through your platform. I’ve personally used it, and many of my friends have tried it too, all with great results! When I gave birth in 1984, I suffered from blocked milk ducts, which caused severe pain, alternating fever and chills. My temperature spiked to 40°C during the fever, and I shivered under three blankets during the chills. Many people suggested various remedies, such as using heated shoe soles to apply heat or scraping with a wooden comb heated over a flame, but none worked. Later, a friend visited me and, seeing my condition, shared a remedy: buy 10 cents’ worth of tangerine seeds (from southern honey tangerines, the kind with seeds) from a pharmacy, boil them with brown sugar, and simmer for 5 minutes after the water boils. I drank it once, and the problem was resolved immediately. My neighbor also experienced blocked milk flow after childbirth, with intense pain. It happened to be tangerine season, and I had some tangerine seeds on my windowsill. Her husband prepared a bowl for her, and she felt better right after drinking it. This remedy is simple, fast-acting, and harmless even if consumed in larger quantities. I hope it can help more people. Shared by: Teacher Fu
