Patient's question:
I am 16 years old, male, why are the nipples of my two breasts not prominent? Height 1.78m, weight 120 jinDoctor's answer:
Disease Analysis:1. Surgical Treatment: If breast development is complete and the nipple inversion does not improve with repeated traction or negative pressure suction treatment, nipple inversion correction surgery can be performed.
Recommendations:
2. Other special treatments are primarily used for the treatment of primary pseudo-nipple inversion. If ineffective, surgical intervention may be considered.
(1) Manual Traction: Puberty is a critical period for breast development and an important time for correcting nipple inversion. Regularly pulling the nipples can make the breasts protrude more prominently, increase the supporting force of the surrounding skin, and achieve a "shaping" effect. Do this several times a day. Over time, the nipples will naturally gradually protrude outward. If it doesn’t work, you can first gently push the skin near the nipple outward.
(2) Negative Pressure Suction: Use a breast pump to apply negative pressure to the nipples, or place a 5–10 ml empty syringe barrel over the areola. Connect the nipple end of the syringe to a rubber tube, which is then linked to another syringe. Pull the plunger of the latter syringe to create negative pressure, which helps to draw out the nipples.
