A member asked:
Will an inverted nipple caused by a lump go back to normal if the lump is remove?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Worrisome: Lumps do not usually cause inverted nipples. This should be closely examined by a physician as well as by a mammogram. Lumps that cause retractions of the skin are more worrisome than those that don't. First this needs to be evaluated. Once it has been ruled benign, removing the lump should not have an impact on the nipple. You may need to have one of several procedures to correct that.
