Breast sagging is quite common in our daily life, and there are many reasons for it. Excessive weight loss, etc., may cause breast sagging.

What to do if your nipples sag

Prevent obesity. For obese women, losing weight will help relieve breast pain. Try heat compresses, a traditional Chinese medical treatment that can relieve breast pain using a heat bag, hot water bottle, or hot bath. If you use alternating cold and hot compresses, the effect of eliminating breast discomfort will be better. Do not eat salty food. High-salt food can easily cause breast enlargement. This type of food should be avoided especially 7 to 10 days before menstruation. Wear a firm bra. In addition to preventing breast sagging, the more important function of a bra is to prevent the compressed breast nerves from being further compressed and eliminate discomfort. Careful sisters will find that those jogging athletes wear stable bras for this health reason.

Causes of sagging breasts

1. Excessive dieting and insufficient protein intake will keep the body in a state of hunger for a long time. The body will think it has entered a famine era and will inevitably mobilize stored fat and protein to cope with it. One of the main structural components of the breast is fat and collagen. The chest fat decreases, the skin becomes loose, and the chest muscles are lost. Malnutrition causes the glandular tissue to atrophy, and the overall chest tissue decreases. However, the connective tissue connecting the chest muscles and breasts does not decrease accordingly, so the breasts become smaller and sag.

2. If you like to take a bath with very hot water, avoid using hot water to irritate your breasts, and don’t soak in hot water for a long time. Otherwise, it will burn the stratum corneum on the surface of the skin, making the skin drier and drier, and the soft tissue of the breast more and more loose. The water temperature for bathing should be around 27 degrees. 3. If you like to use a shower head to wash your breasts, don’t underestimate the impact of bathing on the breasts. Improper water impact may cause burden on the breasts. Do not use direct water to flush the ligaments on the shoulders. The position of the ligaments is roughly the same as that of the bra shoulder straps, and it is the ligaments that play the role of lifting the breasts. Protecting the ligaments can prevent and delay sagging. Using a shower head to rinse the breasts from bottom to top can help firm and lift the breasts. 4. The bra size does not match and the wearing method is incorrect. Many women buy bras without trying them on before taking them home. In fact, a bra that is too small will affect the development of the breasts, while wearing a bra that is too large for a long time may cause sagging breasts. As women age, and before and after marriage or pregnancy, the size of their breasts will change. At this time, when purchasing a bra, you need to adjust the size and try it on before buying.
