Does nipple depression affect life?
ask My nipples have been invaginated since my chest developed to adulthood. My husband and I don't care much, but they are worried about the impact of lactation after the baby is born. Would you like to ask if invaginated nipples have an impact on lactation? What is the solution?
answer There are two causes of nipple invagination: congenital and acquired. The smooth muscle of the congenital nipple areola is poorly developed, the breast duct itself is underdeveloped, there is no support for supporting tissue under the nipple, tissue fibrosis contracture, breast duct shortening, etc; Acquired inverted nipple deformity is relatively rare. Most of them are caused by the nipple being pulled by pathological tissue in the breast or by unreasonable chest binding or wearing too tight bra. Diseases caused by diseases are mostly seen in inflammation, tumor and other diseases. This lady should be the nipple depression caused by congenital dysplasia.
The nipple depression still has an impact on life. The following may happen: the secretion and pollutants at the nipple depression can not be cleaned, which may easily cause inflammation of the nipple areola, bleeding, erosion, and chronic inflammation ; Nipple invagination means that lactation cannot be carried out normally and affects the development of the baby ; If the milk is not discharged smoothly, it will lead to obstruction of the breast duct, milk stasis, and prone to acute mastitis and breast abscess. If the milk is not fed, it will increase the chance of suffering from breast tumors. So nipple depression has an impact on lactation.
Solution to inverted nipple
The plastic surgery departments of general plastic surgery hospitals and public hospitals have the following two surgical methods for inverted nipples:
1、 Stent correction of inverted nipple: fix the inverted nipple to the external stent through steel wire, and extend the nipple through continuous traction to achieve the purpose of correcting inverted nipple. This method does not need to make a incision on the skin, does not damage the breast duct, can retain the breast feeding function, and has a low recurrence rate. It is suitable for patients with mild, moderate and severe depression.
2、 Incision correction of inverted nipple: cut off the breast duct, fully loosen the inverted nipple, and design tissue flap to fill the tissue defect at the nipple root to strengthen the support of the nipple. This method is applicable to women who do not consider breastfeeding in the future, or patients with recurrent local inflammation and severe depression deformity caused by scar traction.
On the whole, nipple retraction not only affects the beauty, but also affects the health and daily life. Female friends with such situations should have surgery as soon as possible.
