Help please! I’ve been pumping for 6months and it’s been a little over a month I’ve been having so much pain and my nipple/areola is raw and it gets worse everyday. What do I do?! Who do I see about this? It’s become so painful

Question

Answer

I would see your OB or a lactation consultant. Do you have any signs of thrush?

Answer

Did you use a nipple balm or coconut oil as lubricant?

Answer

I think it's a size problem. Looks like it's rubbing.
Def
 Call lactation.

Answer

Have you tried doing the lightest setting on your pump? I found that when I lightened up when I'd start to get raw it helped me get back to no pain.

Answer

Have you been sized correctly? Are you using lubricant on your flanges?
