TEXT/PLAIN (13 lines)
A recent posting mentioned that inverted nipples are due to adhesions.
While I am aware that the is the usual thinking, I wish people would
comment on if this is REALLY the case. How and why would adhesions develop
in the breast? and at a rate of about 10%? My knowledge of adhesions deal
with regrowth of tissue following an incision, but how does this relate to
untouched breasts? Is this, again, some myth which needs some
clarification? Thanks all, Anne AndrianosMSN, IBCLC
