Abstract: ABSTRACT Introduction:- Breast massage is a technique introduced to reduce breast engorgement which includes specific kneading, rubbing, and squeezing strokes applied to the soft tissues of the breast to increase blood circulation and tissue fluid circulation which reduces accumulation of milk in breast causing lump or mass in the breast. Breast massage does not require intricate preparation and guidelines, as it is an evidenced based practice to minimize the occurrence of breast engorgement in postnatal period. Research Approach: Quantitative evaluative research approach was used to conduct the study. Research Design: A Quasi- experimental pre -test post-test control group design was used for the study. Setting: The study was conducted in OBG ward of Tertiary level teaching Hospital, Dharwad. Samples: Caesarean mothers with signs and symptoms of breast engorgement were enrolled in the study as samples. Sampling procedure: Non-Probability Purposive Sampling Technique was used for the study. Sample size: A total of 10 caesarean mothers who developed the signs and symptoms of breast engorgement were selected in which 5 were enrolled to experimental group and 5 were enrolled in control group. Results: The mean post-test level of breast engorgement scores with Standard Deviation in the experimental group [2± 1] was significantly lower than in the control group [4± 0.7]. The mean post-test level of pain scores with Standard Deviation in the experimental group [2± 3] was significantly lower than in the control group [4.4 ± 0.4]. This implied that there was a significant difference between pre and post-test level of breast engorgement among postnatal caesarean mothers in experimental and control group at 0.05 level of significance. Conclusion: There was a significant difference between the overall mean interventional scores of breast engorgement among experimental and control group. The study revealed that breast massage was effective in reducing signs and symptoms of breast engorgement among mothers undergone caesarean section
