lump

Avatar n tn The most obvious symptom in males would be a palpable or visible lump in the breast tissue. As a rule male breast cancer appears in the later years but anything is possible. If you have noticed a lump (no matter how small) please make an appointment with preferably a Breast Specialist for an exam and possible Mammogram. Regards ...
Avatar n tn I am a 62 year old male with a slightly painful small hard lump on my left breast, very close to the nipple. No other symptoms exist. Is this just a benign cyst? What should I do?
Avatar m tn i am a guy. but i there's a small lump in my right areola(??) sometimes it's painful when touch. do men get breast cancer? ... will the lump eventually disappear or need to be surgically removed. i appreciate any professional opinions.
Avatar n tn You don't state your age and that would be helpful no matter what the issue. Since you had both types of imagery I don't think there is much to worry about (here again your age would be a factor) and it isn't unusual for these lumps in males to cause some discomfort. IF you continue to experience discomfort OR the lump seems to change in size it wouldn't hurt to take your films and see a Breast Specialist for a second opinion. Take care ......
Avatar n tn It is correct to think that male breast cancer appears increasingly with age. The median age for breast cancer in men in 67. There is most probably no cause for worry in your case, since the small lump and pain that you have can be due to normal growth and development of your body at this age. As you would know there are changes taking place in your body at this time and some of the changes do happen in the breast tissue which is also present in a less developed form in males.
Avatar f tn Hi. My husband is 27 and very active a fit, about 5 months ago he developed a small lump under his left nipple, at the time he never mentioned it as he thought it would go away, it has got bigger and last week he showed me, its round in shape, right under the nipple, hard not painful and feel's quite flat he went to the doctor today who has refered him to a specialist.
Avatar f tn I am glad that you are seeing your doctor tomorrow.This visit is long overdue,and,if I may add, you should not have ignored this lump in your breast for as long as you have.There is something that you can do to lessen the pain...try to limit your caffeine intake as much as possible (chocolate coffee cola).Your doctor will examine your breasts tomorrow and maybe order an Ultrasound for a better understanding of what this lump might be.Best wishes and God Bless.
Avatar m tn i am male and had an ultrasound on 2 small lumps in the left breast and the written report says that the largest lump (3mm) contains a tiny calcific focus with no internal vascularity demonstrated. It says the other one is a small cyst and that no other solid mass or architectural distortion is seen. It also says the retroareolar region and axilla are normal. If a lump has a tiny calcified focus does that mean cancer? and do you think i have anything to worry about?
Avatar m tn I have developed a mass near areola of my right breast in last few days. I has an intense pain and I am not able to understand what it is. I an 37 year old normal lean male with some hypothyroidism from last few years. Can any body help what it is. The lump is very painful. It should not be an infection as I a have no fever like symptoms.
Avatar n tn My son is 12 years old and he recently found a breast lump in his right breast. His armpits are swollen also but we thought it was the cause of him using a new type of deoderant. The lump is also painful. It seems that all of these are syptoms to breast cancer. The thing is that he is only 12. Is that possible that he. Could have breast cancer? This discussion is related to <a href='/posts/show/260750'>lump under left breast</a>.
Avatar n tn You do need to have this investigated though as breast cancer in men is not all that uncommon. This of course would be less likely since you don't mention any lump in the nipple area. Please do have it examined fairly soon as things that are ignored rarely improve on their own. Regards .....
Avatar m tn Just this year I was told by two consecutive doctors that I should not worry about the lump I found in my 62 year old male breast as being cancerous.. Thankfully, each one did refer me on to another doctor for second opinions until my surgeon removed the lump. He too said for me not to worry since the lesion since it did not look like cancer to him when he operated. But five days later the pathology report said otherwise.
Avatar m tn Please make an issue of this lump and request an appointment with a Breast Specialist. This type of finding can be serious in men in your age group .... not that it is, but it definitely deserves some intensive investigation until proven otherwise. Regards ....
Avatar f tn The doctor pescribed me 1mg risperidone and i have taken it for about 1 month. But for the past week i have had pain in my right breast ( i am a male thats a little overweight). The issueright now is very complex. I have right breast pain specifically near the nipple area but my main concern is i have a lump there. According to my knowledge i've always had this lump underneath and near my nipple for as long as i can remember. maybe 7-8 years.
