What is the reason for the white substance in the inverted nipple?

Under normal circumstances, women's nipples are protruding, but if you find that your nipples are sunken and there is white substance inside, you must pay attention to hygiene at this time, because it is easy to get infected. In addition, you need to find the cause of the inverted nipple. It may be caused by softening of the breasts due to aging, or it may be due to many factors such as nipple abnormalities.

First, inverted nipples are damp and stuffy, and are often infected with fungi.

You said "there is white discharge", maybe it is inflammatory discharge. Without direct observation, diagnosis is difficult to make. If it is a fungal infection, you can apply Daknin cream. In addition, even if there is no infection, inverted nipples can easily harbor dirt, which will affect breastfeeding in the future and also look ugly. It is recommended to use a nipple suction device to correct inverted nipples, or to press around the nipple with one hand and pull the nipple with the other hand.

Second, there are inverted nipples, which is very common among young women who are not breastfeeding.

The main reason is that the breasts grow rapidly during development and the tissue is relatively soft. The nipple is the opening and concentration of the mammary ducts and often becomes inverted due to pressure and other reasons. It should have no special relationship with genetics. In addition, the white sticky substance in the nipple is a mixture of shed skin tissue and sweat in the nipple area that has accumulated in the inverted nipple. Just clean the nipple.

Suggestions: It is recommended that you pull your nipples with your hands every day, pull them outward, and wash them with warm water to keep them clean. Be careful to use moderate force when pulling, not too much, to avoid damaging the nipples. After a period of traction, the nipple will protrude.

Third, congenital inverted nipple.

This is a common nipple malformation, inverted nipple, which refers to the central part of the nipple forming a restraining and pulling force due to excessive fibrosis underneath, resulting in an inverted appearance. Stent-based nipple correction surgery is the only surgical method that can preserve the breastfeeding function so far. The inverted nipple is fixed to an external stent with a steel wire. After 3 to 6 months of continuous traction, the purpose of lengthening the nipple and correcting the inverted nipple is achieved. Suitable for patients with mild, moderate and severe degrees of depression. This method does not require making an incision on the skin, does not damage the mammary ducts, can preserve the breastfeeding function, and will not affect the sensation of the nipple, and has a low recurrence rate.

Suggestions: If you feel unwell, please seek medical attention at any time and go to a regular hospital to avoid being deceived.
