Thrush vs Vasospasm
Hey ladies! Wondering if anyone has experience with thrush and/or Vasospasm. My LO and I have been getting treatment for thrush because it presented pretty typically (a week into treatment now). My nipples burn and it feels like sharp glass like pain that goes into my breast and will wrap around into my back/shoulder blade. My LO didn’t have white patches but had the yeast rash on her bottom. The rash has cleared but beautifully, I felt some relief after a couple days but the pain is ongoing though not as severe. I take ibuprofen daily to help curbside it. I have Raynaud’s in my fingers and toes, and I have the blanched nipple after feeding. Occasionally it’ll appear purple, especially after pumping. I’ve heard that vasospasm can often be mistaken for thrush because the symptoms are so similar. Im just concerned because if this is recurrent thrush I’ll gladly take more medication, but if it’s vasospasm and we’re both taking unnecessary medication, I’d rather not lol. TIA!
