Is it a disease for the nipple to shrink inward?

Patient's question:

Is it a disease for the nipple to shrink inward?

Doctor's answer:

The nipple is deeply set within the areola, not only appearing unattractive but also prone to accumulating dirt or oil due to the, causing itching, eczema, or inflammation. To correct this, you can manually pull the nipple outwards by pinching it with your thumb and forefinger in a horizontal or vertical direction, then continuously or intermittently pulling it outward for about thirty minutes. Alternate between both nipples. Repeat 3-5 times daily.
(Mechanical traction): Using a manual or electric breast pump, leverage the principle of negative pressure to draw the nipple out. Similarly, you can continuously or intermittently pull the nipple for about thirty minutes, alternating between both nipples. Repeat 3-5 times daily.
Both of these correction methods can yield good results after two months.
