They are both very good about answering emails. Michele Mommy to Danielle born 5/30/08 and Brady born 12/26/10

Make sure that the salt is completely dissolved. Then soak the affected nipple for 5 minutes. Repeat throughout the day. My moms reported that using this remedy was very soothing, and they noticed that healing began right away. Kim
