Well: If things are normal that is somewhat reassuring but if the lump is still there you will have a better idea of what this issue is after the sono. At that point the next step would be a biopsy.

Follow up : Gynaecomastia can occur but it’s important to rule out breast cancer , liver problem , hormonal Problems . If everything is normal then regular routine follow up with GP and self examination would be recommended.
