How to prevent itchy nipples

Both inverted nipples and nipple itching are very common conditions. In our lives, there are many situations in which nipples appear inverted, and there are many reasons for nipple itching. Physiological factors are easy to solve, but pathological factors can have a huge impact on female friends. In mild cases, it can affect their normal social life, and in severe cases, it can take the patient's life. However, the situation of itchy inverted nipples in women can actually be avoided. So how can we prevent itchy inverted nipples in women?

First, any female immediate family members such as mothers and aunts who have inverted nipples should be the focus of prevention. After a baby girl with a genetic predisposition is born, the mother can gently pull the small nipple outward 1 to 2 times a day. Be careful to be gentle and ask an experienced person to do it. In this way, you can see the baby's nipples protruding from the skin in the shape of green beans or small discs, and the chance of nipple retraction in the future will be greatly reduced.

Second, pay attention to your clothes. Underwear should be made of cotton and should be changed and washed frequently and exposed to sunlight. If the nipples show signs of redness or cracks, the underwear should be steamed and sterilized, and girls should not use bras too early.

Third, prevent extrusion. Underwear and bras should be appropriate and not too tight. For girls with larger breasts, more attention should be paid to the looseness of the breasts. For girls who have the habit of sleeping prone, it is necessary to correct this habit in time to prevent the nipples from being squeezed, so as not to aggravate the degree of nipple retraction.

After giving birth, women with inverted nipples should pay special attention to the health and hygiene of their nipples. For those with mild indentation, increase the baby's sucking frequency appropriately. At the same time, pay attention to protecting the nipples and make sure to clean them after breastfeeding to prevent infection. Once the nipples become red and swollen, you should go to the hospital for diagnosis and treatment in time to prevent mastitis.

Through the above introduction, we understand the impact of itchy inverted nipples on our body, so everyone must pay attention to it. If left unchecked, the disease may spread rapidly and cause us great harm. Therefore, in daily life, if you encounter such a situation, you must seek medical attention in time. Also, you must pay attention to the health and nutrition of your diet, exercise more, and relax your mind, so that you can prevent the disease well.
