Scar tissue blocks feeling in my nipple. Could I get this removed during a BA?

April 18, 2020

So this is a unique problem. When I was much younger I had my left nipple pierced twice. It never really healed right and I finally took it out and it's been out for about 6 years. Basically a bunch of scar tissue formed at the bass of my nipple (internally) and I have no feeling in the middle of my nipple, and then I regain it at the very tip. My left nipple feels like it has a hard little ball in it. Would surgery help this problem? Could I do it during a BA?
