It must be applied to the nipple withthe utmost gentleness, and before the child is allowed to nurseenough milk to fill the glass part of the shield must be ex-pressed into it by massaging the breast for a few moments. Ifthis is neglected the infant will get little or no milk at all, while,on the other hand, he will suck in a quantity of air which willdistend his stomach and cause colic. The nipple shield must never be placed on the breast insuch a position that when suction begins the edges of the fissurewill be drawn apart, and in certain cases, such as fissure at thebase of the nipple, it will do more harm than good. The shield is always to be used with the greatest caution,and must at all times be kept in a perfectly aseptic condition.As the majority of fissures will, under proper treatment, heal
