What Causes Painful Lump Under The Left Side Of The Areola?
Hi, I am male , age of 30. I am feeling lump under he aerola area of the left side of the chest. its kind of visible and paining when it s got pressed. before 2-3 months I felt little erection kind of feeling in my left nipple. but not that much. but it was different from my right nipple. from last 5-6 days its a hard lump under the left aerola . Note- I am taking a medicine of blood pressure and heart diseases from last 6 months.
A lump under the areola needs to be investigated. I suggest you to consult your surgeon for clinical assessment, ultrasound and fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC). FNAC is an office procedure which determines the nature of cells aspirated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Shailja Puri, Pathologist and Microbiologist
