Listen on

Episode notes

Have you heard of Raynaud’s Phenomenon of the Nipple?
This episode we hear from Sally, who suffered incredible pain when nursing. It continued until she got a diagnosis for the condition and started on medication - up until then, no amount of tweaks with latching or positioning stopped the vasospasm, debilitating pain, or colour changes in her nipples.
Hear Sally's experience, along with an explanation of the condition with IBCLC Alice Lucken.
