What are the treatments for inverted nipples, and which one should be chosen?

Patient's question:

Nipple congenital inversion, odor and itching in the areola area, not seen.

Doctor's answer:

Analysis of the condition: Hello, since the nipple inversion is quite significant, and it is difficult to clean locally, it is prone to accumulate dirt and cause secondary infection, leading to chronic inflammation.
Suggestions: In the early stage of nipple inversion, pay attention to cleaning with warm water frequently. After cleaning, you can often pull the nipple outward by yourself, or you can use negative pressure suction to pull the nipple. It can gradually improve on its own. If it is ineffective, surgical correction is necessary.
