Can i tell me how i can get rid of nipple thrush?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yeast and nursing: Many nursing mothers develop painful cracked nipples as a result of fungal infection transferred from baby's thrush. This type of skin infection usually resolves by using the same oral medication that was prescribed to baby, but smeared to nipples instead of taken orally.
