The recurrence of white spots on the nipple suggests that the patient may have conditions such as nipple inflammation, intraductal papilloma, breast hyperplasia, etc. It is recommended that the patient consult a doctor to confirm the diagnosis of the condition before treatment.
1. Nipple inflammation: If nipple inflammation occurs, purulent secretion may appear locally in the nipple, which is manifested as white spots on the nipple, mostly accompanied by symptoms of swelling and pain. The nipple can be sterilized with povidone-iodine to remove the purulent discharge. Apply erythromycin ointment on the nipple, which has a better anti-inflammatory effect. For patients with obvious infection, anti-infection treatment with penicillin and cefixime can be used at the same time.
2. Intraductal papilloma: it is a common benign breast lesion, after the onset of the disease, patients are prone to nipple discharge, white, brown, bloody, etc., and it is easy to form nipple white spots. It may be accompanied by pain. After diagnosis, surgical excision of the lesion is required, and the lesion will be diagnosed through pathological examination after surgery to guide the next step of treatment.
3. Mammary gland hyperplasia: Most common in women with endocrine disorders, due to the body’s hormone level disorders, stimulate the lesion tissue, resulting in milk secretion. After the milk coagulates, white spots appear on the nipple. The use of medications such as Lactaid can help improve the patient’s condition.
There are many possible reasons for the recurrence of white nipple spots, so it is recommended to consult a doctor for examination and treatment under the guidance of the doctor. Do not use medication without authorization, as this may aggravate your condition.
