Patient's question:
Nipple inversion, 32 years old, has always been like this since childhood, had one child, can breastfeed. I want to ask, is there a need for treatment for nipple inversion? This year, a slight breast hyperplasia was found during a thorough examination. What should I do if there is a white, smelly substance in the inverted nipple area?Doctor's answer:
According to your description, your condition should be nipple retraction, which requires correction. Otherwise, it will be impossible to breastfeed in the future. If the nipple can be pulled out by hand, it can be corrected through manual methods. Apply cold compresses and gently pull the nipple several times a day. If this doesn't work, surgery will be the only option. The above advice is for the question "Does nipple inversion require treatment?" I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
