Patient's question:
Doctor, hello! I would like to consult a few reasons for inverted nipples. I have a friend with inverted nipples, which interferes with breastfeeding, so I'm curious about the causes of inverted nipples. I hope the doctor can provide guidance. Thank you! What are the causes of inverted nipples?Doctor's answer:
Symptoms of inverted nipples, as well as pain during breast manipulation, resemble the presence of a stone-sized lump, which may be related to hyperplasia of the breast or breast tumors. We should go to the hospital for breast surgery. Under the guidance of a doctor, undergo detailed examinations such as breast ultrasound and mammography to confirm the cause before implementing treatment. Maintain a positive mood and consume plenty of easily digestible foods. Malignant breast tumors can also cause inverted nipples. The significance of this nipple deformity varies. For women with normal breasts, if there is no obvious reason for nipple inversion, breast X-ray examinations should be performed to aid in the diagnosis of such cases of inverted nipples.
