LLL also recommends using saline solution soaks on damaged nipple tissue in addition to air drying and BM. I believe some time ago someone on LACTNET suggested 1/2 stength hydrogen peroxide soaks could be used in place of the saline. Am I remembering this correctly? Saline solution soaks are also used on burn wounds and I have great (rapid) success with healing nipples this way. Diane Karnbach, LLL Leader Va Beach, VA
