Dear vani,
U may apply vitamin E oil on the nipples as vitamin E oil has rich properties for soothing and conditioning the skin. Calc flour ( homeo medicine)is also used to treat the problem, application of it in salt form cures the problem in short duration. Application of olive oil or sweet almond oil is also effective in curing the problem. These can be applied topically on the nipples during the lactation intervals and washed before next feeding.
