A Case Report on the Nursing Care of a Postpartum Patient with Hypogalactia Due to Deficiency of Qi and Blood Treated by Auricular Point Pressing with Pellets Combined with Finger Pointing Acupressure
This article summarizes the nursing experience of applying Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) techniques to address insufficient postpartum lactation in one case. Nursing staff provided breastfeeding support and care while implementing syndrome-differentiated interventions, utilizing auricular plaster therapy combined with finger acupressure to alleviate postpartum lactation deficiency symptoms and help the parturient gradually establish confidence in exclusive breastfeeding. After 5 days of treatment, the patient achieved unobstructed bilateral lactation with sufficient milk volume to meet the newborn’s demands and was discharged successfully.
