Nipples Sore and Starting to Bleed.....

I have been breastfeeding my baby since she was born and I have been pumping since I came back to work 2 1/2 months ago. Just recently my nipples have been starting to hurt and I had a hard time pumping this afternoon because it hurt so much. Then I looked at them afterwards and they are starting to bleed and look like they have hickey's on them. I do not know what is causing this. Can anyone help me to get rid of this. I do not want my little girl to get blood in her milk when I feed her. Do you think it is the pump or how I am feeding her...
