Background: Breast engorgement is a condition when the breasts swell and become uncomfortable and painful. It
happens in the first days following childbirth and is brought on by increased blood flow and milk production in the breast.
The study aimed to evaluate the effect of breast massage on breast pain and breast engorgement among women and neonate
suckling speed. Design: A quasi-experimental design was utilized to conduct this study (pre/post-test). Setting: The research
will be carried out in the Maternal and Child Health Center at Mansoura City, Egypt. Sample: A non-probability purposive
sampling technique including a sample of the study consisting of fifty women with engorged breasts from the previously
selected areas. Four tools of data collection: Tool I: A structured interview questionnaire، Tool II: Six-point engorgement
Scale, Tool III: Visual analogue rating scale, and Tool IV: Suckling speed record of the neonate. Results: the study revealed
that had swelling and warmness (100.0%), 32.0% had moderate engorgement and more than three-fifths of studied women
had severe pain. After four days of intervention, the majority of the studied sample had normal breasts, had no pain, and their
sucking speed increased. There were statistically significant differences between pre and post-intervention concerning signs
and symptoms of breast engorgement, level of engorgement, and intensity of the pain (p < 0.05). Conclusion: The
application of breast massage was effective in relieving breast engorgement, Breast Pain, and the neonate's suckling speed.
