This safe cream can be used to solve this big problem with breastfeeding. In the peppermint cream group, the mean scores of nipple pain and nipple trauma at third (p<0.001), seventh (p<0.001), and fourteenth (p<0.001) days of the intervention were significantly lower than those in the control group. The mean scores of nipple pain and nipple trauma were significantly lower after the four time periods of intervention in peppermint cream group compared to before the intervention (p<0.05). Conclusion The result of Mann-Whitney test showed that the mean scores of nipple pain and nipple trauma were not significantly different between the two groups prior to the intervention.
