Patient's question:
Nipples are severely inverted, completely invisible! They can't be pulled out by hand! Is it easy to get breast cancer? Also, after taking weaning medication, why can I still squeeze out milk?Doctor's answer:
Hello, may I ask your age? Are you currently breastfeeding? Hello, the most direct harm of inverted nipples to women is that it affects breastfeeding, so it's important to first remind young women to correct inverted nipples before pregnancy. During breastfeeding, inverted nipples can be corrected using the suction therapy, which involves using a breast pump several times a day to draw out the nipples with its negative pressure. The specific method is as follows: remove the glass cover of the rubber glass suction device, squeeze the rubber bulb to expel the air inside. Then, use the opening to suction the areola, utilizing the negative pressure to draw out the inverted nipple. After 10 minutes, remove the rubber bulb, gently pull and twist the nipple, and persist for a period of time until theed nipple gradually protrudes. Finally, please remember to pay extra attention to cleanliness and hygiene for inverted nipples during pregnancy to avoid infection, which could affect breastfeeding and cause inflammation. If you plan to wean, it is recommended to visit a specialized hospital for correction after weaning.
