Alice says,
************************************

I've  used occlusive dressings for my psoriasis and it works well.   It  
would 
be interesting to do a study on this inexpensive way to heal nipples  and I 
too 
would be interested to know if the plastic wrap works as well as  hydrogels.


************************************
In the early 90's, I believe, Verity Livingstone from Vancouver (??) spoke  
at a March of Dimes conference, and her recommendation for treatment of sore  
nipples was vaseline covered with saran wrap.  While I can't give you  chapter 
and verse, I am quite sure she has published on that very issue.  I  don't 
know if it would be in the Lactnet archives or not since I don't remember  if it 
was before or after Lactnet was born.
