Thanks for asking!: You will want to prevent a breast infection and allow your nipples to heal. Try air-drying each nipple after every feeding, and you'll want to massage a few drops of expressed milk onto your nipples several times a day (natural healing properties). Also, frequently apply a pure lanolin ointment to you nipples. If the bleeding persists, you need to seek medical attention.
