Patient's question:
A 22-year-old female was not squeezed at birth because her mother was afraid of hurting her and also believed the elders' saying, "It will grow on its own when you get older." As a result, it remains in a volcano-like shape. In the past, I mistakenly believed it would naturally develop as I grew older, but now at 22, there has been no change. Occasionally, when clothing irritates it, it protrudes and becomes itchy, but it returns to its original state after a while. I have previously mentioned this to my mother, but she always thinks my thoughts are impure and scolds me. Feeling that communication with her is ineffective, I searched online and discovered its severity!Hello, what method should I use to completely alleviate this?
Previous treatment history and effectiveness: None, as I prioritize my family's opinions over my own, so there is no financial support for treatment.
Desired help: What method is most effective if it has already reached...
Doctor's answer:
Okay, here is the translation following your instructions:That your nipple inversion shouldn't be very severe; it should be able to be pulled out by hand to a size like a normal person's.
Guidance: You should first try pulling it out by hand, and don't consider surgery yet. Pulling the nipple frequently can help strengthen the weak tissues and surrounding skin support, acting as a kind of "shaping" effect. Do this several times daily. Over time, the nipple will naturally gradually protrude outward. If it can't be pulled out, you can first push the skin near the nipple on the breast outward a bit. Wish you a speedy recovery.
