Nipple coming through shield?

Is it normal to have 4 small dots where the openings in the nipple shield are when you pull baby off? It looks to me like he's pulling the nipple through the holes in the shield

DS has had a couple of feeding issues including a very strong suck and a mild tongue tie. His tongue tie is fixed, and he sucks with his tongue now, but I'm still in a lot of pain when nursing even with the shield. It could still be due to the damage he caused, my nipples are still healing. But I'm wondering now if the pain is from him sucking the nipple through the holes.
