Suggest Treatment For Lump Under Right Nipple

Hi, I have a lump under my right nipple and I'm a boy 12 years old. It is abt 3 cm big and has lasted for a month. It's gotten bigger over time I'll say tripled. It's painless except for when pressure is applied. Its pretty far from the surface and I've been slowing down alot, and having nausea.

General Surgeon,  's  Response

hi.

it is best if you consult with a doctor, preferably a general or a pediatric surgeon, for medical and physical examination. based from your description, it could be a cyst. even if you're a boy, breast lesions could also occur. it could also be a fibroma or fibrocystic lesion. these lesions are best evaluated clinically. further diagnostic examinations, such as breast ultrasound, will be requested as needed. management (medical and/or surgical) will be directed accordingly.

hope this helps.

good day!!
