A. Pain in nipple happens due to shallow or improper latch please work on correcting latch. Try rubbing the nipple from nose to upper lip. Wait for the baby to open mouth wide and flip the nipple inside. Ensure major portion of areola is in the baby’s mouth.

A. for sore nipple as well as painful nipple you will have to give rest to that breast and nipple for few days and do not give breastfeeding from that side. nipple creams are available for healing. you can also apply your own breast milk to decrease the soreness.x if the pain is severe you can take paracetamol also if there is rash as well as cut on the nipple you can apply nipcare or t bact cream for healing. if there is no ximprovement then kindly meet your doctor
