Bleeding nipple and pumping

Hi
My left nipple is bleeding. I pump 6-8 times per day both sides. Not sure what to do about the bleeding nipple. I am not pumping it now just pumping my right one and will hand express some from my left. Is there anything I can do to help it heal soon?? Tia!

  • Have you tried APNO?  I find it to be the miracle cure :)

  • What is causing the bleeding? Do your flanges fit properly? You need to discover and fix the cause of the bleeding. If you quit pumping it you risk clogged ducts and lower supply.
