The Effectiveness of Correct Breastfeeding Techniques on Sore Nipple Incidents at the South Bulango Community Health Center

Abstract
Breastfeeding failures frequently result in issues. Lack of information about proper breastfeeding technique is one of the issues that frequently arises in nursing women, leading to uncomfortable nipples when the infant does not suck the nipple down to the areola. According to the 2022 Indonesian Demographic Health Survey, 79.3 individuals had painful nipples. The purpose of this study is to ascertain how well breastfeeding practices work in relation to the prevalence of painful nipples among nursing moms at the South Bulango Community Health Center in 2025. This kind of study employs a cross-sectional, quantitative research approach. 47 nursing women who were chosen by accidental sampling served as the study's population and sample. There is a correlation between breastfeeding practices and the incidence of sore nipples at the South Bulango Health Center in 2025, according to the results of statistical testing using the chi-square test. The p value (0.000) is not greater than α (0.05), so H0 is rejected and Ha is accepted. It is intended that the community, especially postpartum moms, would gain more understanding of the connection between breastfeeding methods and the prevalence of painful nipples in nursing moms.
