Shabnam SheikhMom of 2 children3 years agoA. hi, u may use the following technique..
Use two thumbs on either side of your nipple to press firmly on the areolas. Push firmly against your breast and pull the thumbs away from each other. You can try this technique during your pregnancy and after childbirth as well. You can do this twice a day and then move up to seven times a day.
U may use a breast pump to gradually draw the flat nipple outward and helping it protrude can help combat and manage the condition.
These pumps can, if used on a regular basis, help break adhesions under the skin that sometimes cause inverted nipples. Breaking these adhesions can cure or improve the protrusion of the nipple.
