Male nipple hardening

Male nipple hardening

The area around the nipple has now turned slightly red and is warmer than the surrounding area. the nipple itself is hard and still hurts. does this change anything?

Dear bentoudic, It sounds like an inflammation or irritation.  If you are concerned, and your symptoms are not going away or worsening keep your appointment with your doctor who can check this out.  Although breast cancer can occur in men it is uncommon and it usually occurs in men over 60 years old, most breast lumps in men are usually due to some other cause - not breast cancer.
