HI I am 16 years old boy my height is 511 and weight 240 and I have no medical history. I have a lump under my left nipple and when I got out of the shower it started to bleed. I am wondering if the cause of the bleeding is that lump? I do exercise often by walk and sort. So can you please tell me what is happening! Thank you
Hi, thanks for writing to Chat Doctor and sharing your recent health concerns! Well, this is gynecomastia only and nothing to worry about this; just relax! Gynecomastia is very common at your age, and it is described as partial feminine character/development of male breast tissues under hormonal influences especially in over-weight males. Sometimes it may contain small cysts within it and that may bleed when injured/crushed/squeezed... I would further suggest you to go for an FNAC /biopsy and ultrasound of the lump for confirmation and to relieve your concerns, and you must see a surgeon for a proper direct and close clinical examination also! Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions. Wishing you good health.
