Salt water soaks are a miracle, and healed my nipples when they were cracked/bleeding. After nursing, mix 1tsp salt in 1cup warm water and soak 5-10 minutes. I used small tupperware bowls, bent over to put my nipples in the bowls, the leaned back. My breasts kind of formed a suction so the water didn't leak out.
The bowls are small, like 1/2 cup size. THen i let them air dry, and put on your nipple cream. I didn;t use cream at the time b/c I had yeast, but if there's no problem there, then you're okay. You should notice a difference after just a few soaks.
And my DS used to pull off while dragging my nipple with him, but he eventually stopped. Good luck mama.
