Developmental nipple inversion

Patient's question:

Daughter is in the development period, but the nipple is inverted. It's okay to touch or lift it! Will it affect the child's development?

Doctor's answer:

Analysis of the condition: Nipple inversion is caused by the asynchronous development of breast tissue and breast ducts. Generally, severe nipple inversion may require surgical correction, while mild nipple inversion does not affect development.
Advice: Based on the patient's condition, it is considered mild nipple inversion. Manual traction therapy can be performed frequently, which usually does not affect normal development.
