I love saline soaks.  1/4 tsp salt in 1 C water, use as compresses or actually dip nipples into a half filled tea cup.  If it stings they were too generous with salt!  Pat in SNJ

PTP: I just took a call from a mother who got Hand, Foot and Mouth disease
from her babe. Unfortunately, she has the lesions on her nipples, and they
