Apply Freshly Expressed Breast Milk
Smoothing freshly expressed breast milk onto cracked nipples may help them heal by offering antibacterial protection.Make sure to wash your hands before gently applying a few drops of breast milk to your nipples. Allow the milk to air-dry before covering up.
Note: If you have thrush, this remedy should be avoided. Any breast milk should be rinsed off the nipple after feeding your baby. Yeast grows quickly in human milk.
Warm Compress
This is another readily available and inexpensive treatment option. While there aren’t any antibacterial benefits, you may find using warm, damp compresses after breast-feeding to be soothing on sore, cracked nipples.
To apply, dip a washcloth in warm water.
Wring out excess liquid.
Place the washcloth over your nipple and breast for a few minutes.
Gently pat dry.
Salt Water Rinse
This homemade saline solution will help hydrate the skin and promote healing:
Mix 1/2 teaspoon of salt in 8 ounces of warm water.
Soak the nipples in a small bowl of this warm saline solution for about one minute after breast-feeding.
You can also use a squirt bottle to apply the solution to all areas of the nipple.
Pat gently to dry
Change Nursing Pads Frequently
Change nursing pads as soon as they become damp. Leaving the moisture against your nipples can delay healing. Also avoid nursing pads made with plastic linings. They can obstruct airflow. Look for pads made from 100 percent cotton.
Next Steps
For further evaluation and treatment consult online in private.

I would suggest you few tips which will help relieve the trouble.
1. After your baby feeds, clean the nipple with water. Because the saliva of baby would make the area dry.
2. Apply coconut oil to the area.
3. Wear a comfortable maternity bra to support breast.
4. Ensure you baby latches well while feeding.
This is very common complaint of new mothers.
If the issue still persist please contact us on eight four three three nine three eight four seven eight.
Wish you a blessed and comfortable motherhood!
