Edit - some important info I left out - this is NOT Dryness! this is like, reallly super thin skin.
I take vitamin E daily, as well as a multivitamin.
My hygiene is good and I wear bras of a variety of materials.
My soaps/detergents have varied muchly and I do not believe I am an allergy-prone person.
eh, I hope some of you can help me out here, I tried a google, and it's hard to get anything that does *not* refer to breastfeeding ...
problem : my nipples get sore and
the skin where the nipple attatches cracks very easily.
they've not always been like this, but they have been funny for a couple years.
I used to have them pierced, and, for whatever reason, this started happening.
(i'd had them pierced for several years without problems)
I eventually took the rings out, hoping that my nipples would get 'happy' again.
but, even with routine handling them for cleaning (I still have to clean the piercing holes out occasionally) the skin can crack ..
and, as I've recently found out, any actual sexual touching of them does not work well, after only a short while they're a painful mess.
the cracked areas leak a bit of clear fluid (you know, the kind of stuff that bodies tend to ooze out when skin is broken).
aaaaanyways - anyone experience this before? Any ideas of what I can do to
prevent this?
healing is pretty straightforward - clean and neosporin.
but I cannot stand being so fragile.
advise, pl
ease, wonderful ladies?
