Is it normal to squeeze an inverted nipple and divide it?

Patient's question:

When I took a bath, I noticed that my inverted nipples were squeezed out in segments, which I had never noticed before. Doctor, is this normal?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, I'm glad to answer your question. As you mentioned, this situation is quite common. I suggest you can often use your fingers to pull the nipple outward to correct the condition of inverted nipples. Alternatively, you can buy a breast pump, which uses negative pressure to pull the nipple outward. You can also visit the breast department of a hospital for a follow-up examination, first undergo a detailed breast ultrasound to rule out the possibility of conditions such as breast fibroadenoma or breast cancer. Wishing you good health.
