What Does Nipple With Scab And Yellow Crust Without Breastfeeding Indicate?
Hi, I'm 20 I had my first child 10 months ago, I did mot breast feed. I am currently on the depo shot as well. My nipples tend to feel "raw" and today on my right nipple I had a white yellowish crust on it. What could this be? I picked it off and my nipple is now irritated. Like if I was to pick off a scab.
