Is there medicine to rub on the breast nipples to prevent it from being hurt when breastfeeding a child?

What do you mean by being hurt? Please do not apply any medicine on the nipples before breastfeeding the baby. Ensure your baby is well attached to the breast... All the nipple and areola should be in the mouth of the baby so as to avoid the baby sucking or biting on the nipples...this will prevent the nipple pain or sores.
