Our breasts are meant to nurse, that is correct... but that
sensitive nipple skin has to get used to the constant friction.
In two weeks I was back to normal,
my nipple skin regrew.
Sometimes the crack in
the nipple skin can be seen on the nipple itself or where the nipple joins the areola, or the crack can be very fine and hard to see.
Any mark or rash on breast or
nipple skin that is asymmetric, doesn't improve over time, or is bleeding should be checked out by a doctor to make sure it's not something cancerous, says Dr. Lipner.
A small clinical trial using emu oil on new breastfeeding mothers found that it is somewhat effective at relieving the pain from breastfeeding and keeping
the nipple skin nourished.
