Article Synopsis
- Raynaud's phenomenon is an excessive blood vessel contraction usually affecting extremities, but this study focused on its occurrence in the nipples of breastfeeding women.
- Researchers analyzed data from 12 women diagnosed with nipple Raynaud's between 2016 and 2023, examining age, symptoms, triggers, treatment, and duration of symptoms.
- Findings revealed it was more common in first-time mothers about 10 days post-delivery, with severe pain that often improved through treatment without affecting breastfeeding duration.
