Gogglebox’s Ellie Warner was recently rushed to hospital after suffering a burst abscess that left her in “so much pain”.
The TV personality, 32, shared a candid post explaining her breastfeeding journey with her baby boy Ezra – who she shares with partner Nat Eddleston.
Ella wrote on Instagram that Ezra had a tongue tie that she sought treatment for when he was three weeks old.
Alongside a photo of her son lying across her legs in the hospital, Ella wrote, “At this point I had developed a clogged duct and tried various methods to clear it but nothing worked.
“In the end it turned into mastitis. I went to the doctor who prescribed antibiotics, but after 10 days it turned into an abscess.’
Health update: Gogglebox’s Ellie Warner was recently rushed to hospital after experiencing a burst abscess that left her in “so much pain.”
She continued, “The morning the abscess burst, I was in so much pain I cried. I was afraid to feed on the affected breasts and could not be seen by my own GP.
‘I got an appointment at the GP, who said I had to go to the emergency room. I was beside myself and in a lot of pain, but the emergency room consultant was kind and referred me to the breast clinic the next day.
“I didn’t want this to be the end of my breastfeeding journey because I wasn’t ready to stop. I was proud of what I had achieved so far.’
It comes after Ellie shared a sweet moment when she breastfed her newborn son Ezra in a sling.
The star took to Instagram to share the revealing photo of her son eating dinner while wrapped tightly in a sling.
Ellie gave birth to her son in a home birth in a water bath three weeks ago and has since shared her motherhood journey on Instagram.
She looked radiant as she smiled for the camera as she cradled her Ezra in one arm and posed a peace sign in the other.
Her fans supported her taboo breastfeeding snap and praised the star of her breastfeeding awareness.
Ellie revealed she has Mastitis, an inflammatory breast pain in breastfeeding women that can cause swelling, warmth, and redness.
