What should I do if I have severe nipple inversion?

Patient's question:

I am 20 years old and have severe nipple inversion. I don't know if it affects the breasts. Will it interfere with my future marriage and having children? I have had nipple inversion since my growth and development began. However, if I pat my chest with my hand, the breast will protrude, but as soon as I stop touching the nipple, it sinks back down.

Doctor's answer:

If severe nipple inversion reoccurs, you can correct it yourself using some simple methods. For example, you can buy a syringe from a pharmacy, remove the needle tip, and attach it to your nipple. Then, pull back the plunger to create a negative pressure within the tube. Practice this several times a day for a long period, and the symptoms will gradually stabilize. You can also perform breast massage. Adjust your physical and mental health, maintain personal hygiene, and avoid bacterial invasion due to weakened immunity.
