Understanding Tuberous Breasts
Tuberous breasts are a congenital condition characterized by abnormal breast development. This condition can vary in severity but often involves:
- Restricted Base of the Breast: Limiting the natural expansion and resulting in a tubular shape.
- Herniation of Breast Tissue into the Areola: Causing the areolas to appear enlarged or puffy.
- Asymmetry Between Breasts: Noticeable differences in size and shape between the breasts.
- Underdeveloped Breasts: The breasts fail to develop normally and fully during puberty.
