The main reason for the same is improper latching by baby..Read the breastfeeding positions article on Babychakra.  In the meantime, apply your breastmilk on the affected area, you will get relief..if problem still persists, please consult lactation specialist

Ardo gold cream heals faster than any other...I tried almost all nipcare creams and after using gold cream for 2-3 days after every feed...I never needed...they are still in my drawer...
