Introduction: Breastfeeding is a natural phenomenon, but in some cases it is not without problems and pain. One of the reasons that breastfeeding is not established as it should be is nipple vasospasm or Raynaud's phenomenon. Purpose: Breastfeeding is a natural phenomenon, but in some cases it is not without problems and pain. One of the reasons that breastfeeding is not established as it should be is nipple vasospasm or Raynaud's phenomenon. Purpose: The purpose of the thesis is to investigate the topic and find out what challenges the Raynaud's phenomenon of the nipple brings to a woman who wants to breastfeed. Methods: We used a qualitative research approach. Literature was found on various databases such as Cobiss, PubMed, Google Scholar, DiKul and Wiley Online Library. The literature search was carried out using the keywords listed below. The selection of relevant literature was based on the relevance of the content of the articles, the availability of the full text of the articles and the timing of the publication of the articles. We evaluated the selected articles according to their level of quality using the evidence hierarchy. Results: 12 articles were included in the final meta-analysis. We have found that the symptoms include two or three phase changes in the color of the nipple, and severe or sharp pain can occur at any time before, during or after breastfeeding. The cause of an attack of nipple vasospasm involves a complex interaction between genetic, nervous, vascular and intravascular factors. A good medical history and physical examination are essential for the recognition and correct diagnosis of Raynaud's wart phenomenon, as Raynaud's wart phenomenon is often misdiagnosed, leading to inadequate treatment. Mild attacks of vasospasm can often be managed by avoiding the triggers, but when a woman has severe attacks, we use medication. Breastfeeding pain is a common reason why women stop breastfeeding, so it is important to recognize the problem early and act accordingly. Discussion and conclusion: We found that it is necessary to correctly identify breastfeeding problems and find a suitable way to approach the solution. As health professionals, we need to be sufficiently educated to be able to impart appropriate knowledge to the woman, teach her self-help and provide her with appropriate support.
