Does it seem absurd? Well, it seemed the same to us the first time we heard of it. The reason behind it is so satisfying and all worth this trick.
Breast pain is a common phenomenon that most women suffer from. Also known as mastalgia, this kind of breast pain normally occurs during PMS, breastfeeding etc. Putting cabbage leaves on breasts started way back in the American world and slowly spread to other parts. Cabbage leaves on breasts are known to reduce the pain, bringing it back to normal in a short period of time. While the science behind this trick is still not fully discovered, it definitely works.
Breastfeeding mothers experience swollen breasts more often than the rest, causing discomfort and pain. Soon after birth, the breasts seem normal, but after a few days, the worry of lumpy and heavy breasts becomes a concern. Apart from just heavy breasts, cracked nipples could also recover from that stage through some cabbage remedy. While breastfeeding isn’t the sole reason for heavy breasts, an incorrect bra size could be a reason too. Whatever the reason maybe, the remedy remains intact and benefitting.
