The development of a child’s nipple can be determined by the size of the nipple that can be felt by pressing on it, or a breast ultrasound can be performed to assist in this determination.
Generally around the age of 10 to 11, due to the stimulation of estrogen, children will develop small lumps or nodules inside the breast, which are generally called breast nuclei.
This lump or nodule is usually called a nipple. When the nipple is pressed, pain can be felt and the nipple can be felt as a flattened semicircle. If the nucleus cannot be felt with pressure, an ultrasound of the breast can be performed to assist in this determination.
If a child shows signs of precocious puberty before the age of 8, he or she should be treated promptly. Precocious puberty may delay the child’s height development and may also have a negative psychological impact on the child.
If the nucleus pulposus appears at a normal time, it is a normal physiological phenomenon, don’t worry too much, and maintain normal sleep and diet.
