I Told the Doctor My Nipples Were Itchy. And Here's What He Told Me!

Basil leaves can also help treat skin problems with the many healing properties found naturally inside them. They act as a catalyst to the repair of the nipples, which you'll be glad for when you're experiencing the pain or itchiness. How do you use them? Simply take a handful of basil leaves, then wash and grind them in order to create a sort of paste. Then apply it to the nipples and let it dry. Before you breastfeed your baby, wash it off. Follow this for one week and you should experience relief by the end.
