My DS is 12 weeks old. I have a problem with my right nipple - there is a small hole on the top of my nipple that is red and sore. It goes after feeding, but appears during the feed. It's like the top of my nipple opens up. It's really sore during the feed because of this. I've had it for several weeks.
I'm confused what could be causing this. I have had the latch checked lots due to initial problems with cracks. DS had a posterior tongue tie cut 5 weeks ago. Since then the cracks have hugely improved. Just have very faint ones to base of nipple which are hopefully healing too.
I do get some throbbing pain to the nipple in-between feeds and also sometimes my nipple looks puckered.
Any thoughts what is going on?
