Lump behind nipple Posted: 01-07-08 17:39pm


I AM A 62 YEAR OLD MALE. HAVE HAD PROSTATE REMOVAL SURGERY A YEAR AGO. AM IN GOOD HEALTH NOW. FOR THE LAST THREE MONTHS I HAVE EXPERIECED A LUMP BEHIND MY RIGHT BREAST NIPPLE. IT IS ABOUT THE HALF THE SIZE OF A GOLFBALL. IT IS SOFT AND MOVES EASILY. SORE WHEN I PRESS ON IT. SHOULD I BE CONCERNED ABOUT IT AND HAVE IT CHECKED.

Have you noticed a change in its size within three months? Are there some changes of the right nipple? What was the indication for prostate removal?

Go to the doctor and get that checked out immediatly. You might need a mammogram to determine what it is. 1 question... Has the size increased/decreased or stayed the same along the past three months? PM me and tell me how it goes

You need to visit a doctor to get professional examination for this lump. Aspiration biopsy is recommended as the initial procedure for all breast masses in men.
