Hi,

I'm 17 year old male and I'm wondering if I should get this checked out.
Lately I've noticed my nipples have weird lumps  but really small in my nipple and
it is covered around my nipple... I've looked up breast cancer symptoms and the lumps are the only things I can find as a symptom... I don't know whether i should get it checked or not... I am overweight and wondering if it can just be
gynecomastia which i researched a possibility it could be.
I'm not sure though but please help me.

It sounds really like gynecomastia only. With some areola development.
It is 100% unlikely to be breast cancer. - I'm not a doctor yet but I learned medicine before.

Don't be shy. Ask your PCP to have a look at it.
You should always be honest with your doctors. It's nothing to be ashamed of.

Actually I myself have more to worry about right now.

o dear to above. well , yea it doesnt sound like anything to worry about because cancer would be one firm lump really, but id mention it and see if they can do anything anyway. there was a man being seen at the clinic i went to the other day, so dont worry about mentioning it. x
