Patient's question:
I am 25 years old, female. I recently noticed that my nipples seem to be slightly inverted while taking a bath. My friend said it might be nipple inversion. What should I do about my inverted nipples?Doctor's answer:
1. Manual traction Puberty is a critical period for breast development and also an important time for correcting inverted nipples. Regularly tractioning the nipples can make the nipple tissue weak, the milk ducts, fibrous bands, and smooth muscles stretch and extend, allowing the nipple to naturally protrude outward gradually. However, this requires a significant amount of time and must be implemented gradually to achieve good results.2. Suction therapy The principle of suction therapy is similar to manual traction. Using a negative pressure suction device, it exerts traction on the inverted nipple to stretch and extend the milk ducts and fibrous bands.
3. Surgical treatment. In daily life, patients should maintain a balanced nutritional intake, engage in aerobic exercises to strengthen their bodies, and keep a positive mood to enhance their physical condition and accelerate recovery speed.
