Q.

my baby is 1 month and 4 days old, I am using nipple shields as per doctors advice, now I am experiencing pain in nipples even when the baby is not feeding, is it an infection?

A. Dear ma’am, it could be due to inappropriate latch. Avoid using nipple shield. With little support you will be able to successfully breastfeed your baby without any of these accessories. I would suggest you to get hands on help from a certified lactation consultant

A. hello the pain is more than you can try to keep a warm compress and if this also does not help then it would better be good to check with your doctor and your doctor can guide you better on examination of the same and advise you accordingly
