Thanks, Sharon, for your response. It was interesting to hear
that in your experience, low humidity/dryness due to indoor
heating in winter are responsible.
Does anyone out there live in a desert climate like me - rainfall
only in winter, and hot dry summers? Most Israelis don't heat too
much since it doesn't get really all that cold, but we get our
dryness in summer, rather. What is your experience with seasonal
variations of nipple soreness? Judy Knopf in Beer Sheva, Israel,
