A member asked:
I have a lump under my left nipple with tenderness to the breast. i am going through puberty at the age of 14 and have heard it could be gynecomastia. is it anything to worry about?

Any lump in the breast area needs to be evaluated by a DR in person. Both Males and Females can develop a variety of breast disorders including gynecomastia, fat necrosis, cysts and breast cancer. A thorough exam can determine if further testing or treatment is needed.
