idk you can call a LAC or your doc to see if they're concerned but its a bitch to heal with the thrush too.

@kambam, I've been doing epsom salt soaks before and after nursing. Massage after. I start nursing on that side every time but I can only handle it for a minute or so. Pump on that side after feeding. Lanolin and anti fungal (we have thrush) between feedings. Olive oil and massage 3x a day.

yeah I can imagine. are you treating it at all? those shields that go over your nipples under your clothes so they dont rub are good or the hydrogel nipple pads.

@kambam, only a few days but the pain is so bad it's worse than labor. It makes me tear up anytime my clothes rub it even.

if it gets infected. how long have you had it
