> Melinda and Lisa, I doubt if it would look crusty. The appearance of psoriasis of the nipples is different. Has the mother been investigated for a bacterial infection?  In a recent post I provided a reference for a very useful article by dermatologists (Heller and colleagues) that describes a number of causes of sore nipples. Have a look in the archives.
