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 healincg. you can also apply your own breast milk to decrease the soreness. if the painx is severe you can take paracetamol also if there is rash as well as cut on the nipple you can apply t bact cream for healing. if there is no improvement then kindly meet your doctor

A. Use Boroline anti septic cream and then you can caput cabbage leaves on top of that and leave it this way when you just have to see the child clean it and go ahead with feeding and apply the same process it is going to be really very helpful if you keep doing it you will see good results within a day or so
