What is a small white spot on the nipple?

Patient's question:

Today I'm feeding the baby! Unexpectedly, I found small white spots on my breasts! What is this thing! I never had it before! Could it be a disease? What should I do! My child is still breastfeeding?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, because normal nipples have abundant sweat glands, sebaceous glands, and milk ducts, your condition may be due to normal sebaceous glands, but it could also be caused by secretions from an infected inverted nipple. Suggestions: You should visit the dermatology department of a hospital for an examination or consult a gynecologist to check if it is caused by inflammation. Early detection of the cause and symptomatic treatment are important. Wishing you good health!
