A. h m for cracked nipples , express some breast milk after every feed , apply it on nipples , air dry .wear comfortable clothing. if it's deep and painful do not feed from that side. consult gynecologist. keep on expressing milk milk duct gets blocked. sucking action of baby is the most effective remedy. try different feeding positions too to empty breast completely.
