I don't really know what you mean by a lump but since you are under the skin disorder page I assume you mean it's kinda like acne and not under the skin like tissue. It's normal to have pimple looking things there. It's just part of that area. As far as liquid in them i'm not to sure about. I am sure they are supposed to be there if you look close enough. If it is an actual clump of tissue you need to get it checked out.

Yer I had this when I was about 14. I thought they were glands (i didnt squeeze them and so no liquid ever came out of them.) the lumps were under the skin and not a skin problem. However, I just lef them and they soon went away. I wouldnt worry about it tbh.

You should not let anything like this go. I am glad the the above poster had their problem eventually go away, but you really need to see a doctor.
Lumps under your nipples (which is what you said) that leak discharge are definately not normal. It may just be something simple, but you really cannot just let it go.

Hi, i'm almost 22 years old and I have the same problem like mistaoralz. One of the lumps (under the right nipple) is bigger. I'm really very embarassed. My urologist said that they're not dangerous and that some men have them. Well, i've never met a guy who has them. The urologist also told me about plastic surgery but I didn't go. Is there a way to remove them easily or with a minimal external intervention?

I also have a very greasy and sensitive face and body skin and also have little pimples down there.

Really, really thank you in advance.

Hey guys, im a fourth year medical student who was just passing by the site looking around. But I was a little concerned about some of the posts I saw and thought I could give some advice.
First thing, just because someone else's lump went away, doesnt mean yours will, and in no way does it mean you two have the same problem.
Any male with a lump under his nipple, has a pathology called gynecomastia. It's def. Is an embarrassing disease, it is usually associated with larger feminine looking breasts in men. If any of the people with the lumps are over weight, then the lumps are due to a decrease in breakdown or increase in production of a hormone found in women called estrogen. Other problems are associated with steroid abuse, or dif. Medications, and most are just (benign) not a big deal, and can only be removed by surgery if they don't go away alone by themselves.
Lumps or feminine shaped breasts are found pretty commonly in men, and usually there is nothing to worry about. The fact that one of the poster's lumps produces discharge is a little more "interesting". And the poster should take an appointment to have the lumps looked at under ultrasound or xray. I think youre too young for anything serious to be the problem, but its always good to be on the safe side.

I hope I was some help to anyone...And even though I think these postings are a good idea, I dont suggest anyone taking advice from anyone who is not a professional.

Let me know if you need anyting else

hey guys well i just wanted to say that it is normal for any aged male to have these symptoms. i am 14 and i have had the same problems ever since i hit puberty ( 2 years ago). i have asked my dad about all of this and he said that many men have lumps under their nipples. he also said that he once had those too when he was younger. lumps under anyones nipples dont matter at all i dont care what a collage student says i have even asked my DOCTOR!!!!!!!!!!

hey, i am a fourteen year old male and i also have this problem, but mine is probably a bit more severe than yours, i have a lump under my nipple that is about twice the size of the nipple itself, and it causes my nipples to poke out abnormally far, this causes great embarrassment to me, therefor i do not take my shirt off in front of people or go to swimming parties, i would say i am well built for my age, and i thought if i worked out, the muscle underneath it would cause it to go away, i was mistaken, it just caused it to poke out more, i have had it about a year not but it has just recently affected my physical appearence, all i want to know is what i can do to lessen the bump, just enough to where it doesnt cause my nipples to poke out. any advice?
