Latch Question

MK

My baby boy was born yesterday. I’ve noticed that, in the last 12 hours or so, my nipples have become pretty sore (which is normal to some extent, I know); when he latches and sucks, it almost feels like it burns, and when he’s done, it looks like there’s a line on my nipple from how he was sucking. Based on some middle of the night googling, it sounds like it might be a tongue tie or lip tie issue? Has anyone had this problem before, and did you do anything before getting it corrected that helped with the uncomfortable-ness? Thanks!
