Want to Stay in a Bra, Stop Checking to Make Sure Nipples Aren't out of Shirt

August 20, 2010
Asked By:2306anon in pennsylvania

I had breast reduction surgery 5 years ago. Can my nipples be placed again? My nipples come out of every single bra and shirt, even full coverage bras and racerback tank tops. I'm desperate, he cut my incision again and pulled the breasts down, it fixed nothing. Should I go back? I just want to stay in a bra, and stop checking to make sure my nipples aren't out of my shirt.
