Brief Answer:
Please do as directed

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.

The baby may have accidentally made a cut on the nipple leading to pain.
Please let her apply Nipcare Ointment on the area.
It is safe during feeding.

If feeding from that side is painful she can avoid it for a few days till it heals but manually press and. remove milk so that it does not get collected.

All the best
