Do I Have Herniated Nipples or Tubular Breasts and What Can I Do to Correct That? (photo)

beyoglu6
My breasts have looked this way since I was a teenager. I'm now 23. I waited hoping there was going to be some improvement somehow regarding the shape of my nipples but it's time to admit they isn't going to be any. I think it's time to do what I think will be best for me so I can stop being so self-conscious about it. How would you call this problem and what can I do to correct this? (I have had no children yet, so I wouldn't want to risk my future ability to breastfeed them. Thank you.
