Patient's question:
Nipple inversion,,, a little itchy, and there is leakage. When the nipple is itchy, it comes out on its own. Will it affect breastfeeding in the future? Is there a way to correct it?Doctor's answer:
It will affect breastfeeding, and may lead to mastitis. Manual traction during puberty is a crucial period for breast development and an important time to correct inverted nipples. Regularly pulling the nipples can make the nipples weak, the milk ducts, fibrous bands, and smooth muscles to swing and shorten, and the nipples naturally gradually protrude outward. However, this requires a longer time and should be implemented step by step to achieve good results. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery!
