A member asked:
What does a lump in an adult male with possible breast cancer feel like? where and how do you check for it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
While male breast cancer is unusual, it does happen and only proper evaluation and tests can exclude it as a possibility. Gynecomastia can also be a sign of other systemic disorders. Go see your doc and discuss all these issues in detail. Treatments depend on the diagnosis, which is not clear from these symptoms.
