I believe I have read studies that indicate warm water compresses are as effective as lasinohl and hydrogel for nipples traumatized by early breastfeedings
In addition, women using hydrogel pads tend to have a higher incidence of mastistis.
We are developing policies to accompany our main breastfeeding policy for a BFHI designation application.
Suggestions on best treatments other than correcting the latch for soothing nipple trauma in the early postpartum period?
Thank you.
