Patient's question:
I don't know why recently, my nipples have been retracted, and sometimes they even have a bad smell. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
The situation you mentioned is the recurrence of inverted nipples. As you described, this can be caused by developmental issues. For inverted nipples, it is generally possible to stabilize them through some self-corrective methods, such as using your fingers to pinch and pull the nipple outward, or you can use a breast pump to apply negative pressure and draw them out. Over time, this can gradually stabilize the condition. Pay attention to keeping the nipples clean and maintaining local hygiene.
