Gynecomastia: Your condition is known as gynecomastia, and is not uncommon in men, where fatty tissue build-up surrounds the breast and, or nipple area. The condition often leads to shyness in removing your shirt in appropriate conditions, and some men tend to where loose-fitting clothing in order not to call attention to it. If it really is bothersome, consult a plastic surgeon.
