Am not Ms Kang but am willing to share some experience and hope it helps. Sharp pain is usually not a norm and could be because of your latching. Sometimes you latch baby not on your aerola but on your nipple dat could also cause you to have pain. Do check on your latching. You can also apply some nipple cream if it gets worse. Before and after latching, you can apply some breast milk on your nipple and allow it to dry naturally.
