Is Applying Cream to the Nipple Normal After Breast Reduction?

Congratulations on having undergone the breast reduction procedure. The cream your doctor is applying is a topical antibacterial cream. Best to ask him directly if he has specific concerns about infection.

 Best wishes; hopefully, you will be pleased with the long-term outcome of the procedure performed.

I am glad that your breast reduction went well. Every plastic surgeon has different ways to manage the incisions/grafts. Just follow his or her instructions and I'm sure your result will be fine. Best wishes.

Really need more information about the type of cream that you are applying and the reason for using it.  If you are having healing problems this could be either silvadene or nitroglycerin paste.  Each would have different reasons for being applied.  If you had a free nipple graft it is possible that there are some healing issues involved.
