- Hygiene: Keep the nipples clean and dry. Wash them with water and allow them to air-dry after each feeding. - Moisturization: Use lanolin or other nipple creams recommended by healthcare providers to keep the skin soft and prevent cracking. - Breast Pads: Change breast pads frequently to avoid moisture buildup, which can cause skin irritation. - Breast Milk: Apply a few drops of breast milk on the nipples after feeding as it has natural healing properties.
