Inverted nipple is a congenital nipple deformity. It has a great impact on breastfeeding and usually makes normal breastfeeding impossible. Inverted nipple is difficult to clean and can cause local infection, affecting the appearance. Plastic surgery should be performed in time. 1. The main manifestations of inverted nipples One or both nipples are retracted beneath the skin of the breast. If there is periductal mastitis, the patient may have erythema or pain around the areola and a lump under the areola; if the nipple is inverted due to breast cancer, the patient's breast may suffer from skin diseases such as orange peel and armor-like skin. 2. People who are prone to inverted nipples Primary nipple inversion mostly occurs in teenage girls, while secondary nipple inversion is more common in lactating women. Breast tumors may be accompanied by breast lumps and corresponding skin lesions due to milk duct dilatation or periductal mastitis. 3. Complications caused by inverted nipples (1) Local infection. The inverted nipple makes local cleaning difficult and easily accumulates dirt, causing infection and chronic complications. Exudate will accumulate locally, and some even have symptoms such as foul odor and skin erosion. (2) Difficulty in breastfeeding. Because the inverted nipple makes it impossible to clean the area, milk accumulates and may even cause acute mastitis due to secondary infection. (3) Affects appearance. Inverted nipples affect women's appearance and require plastic surgery. |
