What should I do if I get blisters from breastfeeding?

Sucking out blisters (medically known as blisters) during breastfeeding may be caused by inflammation of the nipple or incorrect feeding methods. It is recommended that breastfeeding be suspended, and medication can be used to fight infection and sterilize the area.
1. Stop breastfeeding: If you get blisters from breastfeeding, you should stop breastfeeding. Continuing to breastfeed may cause the blisters to rupture and lead to infection.
2. medication: after stopping breastfeeding, you can use povidone-iodine and other drugs to disinfect; if the blisters are ruptured, you can use erythromycin, mupirocin and other topical medications; if a pus infection occurs, you can take amoxicillin and other drugs to treat it.
3. Other: pay attention to nipple hygiene during breastfeeding, such as wearing comfortable and soft underwear, changing underwear regularly, using warm water to wash nipples, etc.; pay attention to the way of feeding the baby, don’t just give the baby the nipple to contain the areola and so on.
If the symptoms can not be relieved, it is recommended to seek medical treatment in time and use medication under doctor’s guidance.
