First of all I am a GUY I am 18. I know that guys dont have real boobs but they of course DO have nipples (DUH).Now that you know the backround information, I was in the shower a few days ago I noticed one of my nipples was sticking out the other wasnt. I squeezed both in the exact same spot and one has this little lump right underneath it and the other doesnt. What do you guys think? Please dont say see a doctor because our doctor is an HMO and an unconcerned jerk.

GO SEE A DOCTOR!!!!!!!!! Just because you're a man doesn't mean that you CAN'T have breast cancer. And a lump in the breast MAY or MAY NOT mean that. GO SEE A DOCTOR!!!!!!!!! In the US, over a 1000 men have been diagnosed with breast cancer within the last year. GO SEE A DOCTOR!!!!!!!!!

I repeat, GO SEE A DOCTOR. Hopefully, it's nothing, but trust me, you don't want to take a chance! Who cares what kind of guy your doctor is-- just go anyway.

But YOU didn't know did you? Now, at least, you have a chance if you do have cancer or piece of mind if you don't.Either way, you're better for than you were. Irregardless if the DR is an a$$hole or not. Next time go to a DR and if he doesn't do what YOU feel needs to be done, GET ANOTHER DOCTOR.
