What to apply on chapped nipples

The breast is one of the most important parts of the body. It controls the secretion of female hormones and affects every cell in the body. After being stimulated by external factors, the nipples often become cracked. In severe cases, pus will ooze out and infect other parts of the body. Therefore, timely treatment is necessary. The fastest way is to apply medicine. Here are some medicines for you.

[Nursing/Treatment Method] The condition did not get better and I ended up going to the hospital’s breast department. After examination, the doctor prescribed erythromycin eye ointment. Apply a little erythromycin eye ointment after each baby feeds to prevent wound infection. Just wash it clean before the next baby feeds. In addition, I bought a nipple protection pacifier from a baby store and put it on my nipple every time I breastfeed to relieve pain. In addition, I also searched the Internet for methods to treat nipple cracks at home. One of the most effective ones is egg yolk oil, which is to take only the yolk of a boiled egg, crush the egg yolk, put it in a pan to fry it to produce oil, and apply it on the nipples. It can promote tissue growth, remove dead tissue, and promote wound healing. After persisting for about half a month, my nipple cracks were finally completely healed!

[Experience Summary] In fact, the main reason for nipple cracks is that the mother's nipple skin is relatively delicate, especially when there is insufficient milk or the nipples are too small or inverted. Because the baby sucks and bites the nipples hard, the nipple epidermis is soaked in saliva and becomes softened, peeled off, and eroded, forming cracks of varying sizes. In addition, if the baby's sucking posture is incorrect during breastfeeding, it can also cause nipple cracks.

It is more likely caused by the child sucking the nipple for a long time. This result suggests that you should pay attention to rest, avoid staying up late, wear loose cotton underwear, let the children take turns sucking the nipples, and use warm water to clean the nipples after each child finishes feeding, and apply erythromycin ointment topically for treatment. You can go to a regular hospital to clarify the situation and make targeted treatment based on your specific situation.
