Possible gynecomast: Lumps are seen in male breast which has a normal duct system. Fibroadenomas rarely seen but Ca less frequent at your age. Mammo should not be used because even male breast tissue sensitive to RTl Needle aspiration or sono can be employed. Disease almost guarteed to be benign and may require excision.

The waiting is: tough, but the vast majority of the time a lump behind the nipple in a man is due to gynecomastia.
