I nursed my daughter for five years following breast reduction surgery--my story is in the archives. My entire nipple was removed and repositioned, and I have extensive scarring. My left nipple ALWAYS hurt during nursing. This pain never went away, but I learned to deal with it. During those five years, I never knew what caused my pain. But I feel certain now that it was because of scar tissue. Unfortunately, it was my daughter's favorite side!
