Patient's question:
My wife has inverted nipples, and the milk always comes out in small amounts. Her breasts are also sore and hard. I've tried squeezing and wrapping warm towels, but it hasn't helped. I've also tried using a breast pump and the baby has tried to suck, but neither has worked.Doctor's answer:
Analysis of the condition: "Nipple inversion" is a congenital change. During lactation, if milk cannot flow out, not only will the baby not be able to feed, but it will also make it very easy for inflammation to form. However, you can do the following now:Recommendations: Buy a breast pump at a pharmacy. Its principle is to use negative pressure to extract milk, and the pressure can also be adjusted by yourself, which is very convenient. After extracting, pour it into a bottle to feed the baby. Using the breast pump frequently for a period of time can correct the nipple inversion.
