Patient's question:
I only realized today that my nipples are actually growing inward, to the point where they can no longer be seen. Both sides of my nipples are like this. How did the inverted nipples happen? What factors cause the nipples to grow inward? I've never been able to correct them, and what kind of illness might it cause?Doctor's answer:
You have inverted nipples. You can pull your nipples daily, and with long-term persistence, the nipples may protrude to the surface of your breasts. This is due to abnormal growth and development causing the nipples to grow inward. If it cannot be corrected, it mainly affects your ability to breastfeed, and at that time, you can use a breast pump to extract milk. It has no other impact on your physical health.Moreover, patients should develop a regular lifestyle, adhere to treatment, maintain a light diet, and engage in aerobic exercise to boost their immunity and reduce the risk of illness.
