As a person surviving cancer, I advise you strongly to see your doctor immediately. It could be hormones. But what IF it isn't? Men do get breast cancer. If there is any discharge from the nipples, if you massage your entire breast with the flat of your hand and feel something hard like a dried pea, Go Today. The worst they can tell you is that it's an infection or some hormones going haywire. The important thing they can tell you is that you/ve saved your life. Good Luck

I don't think a man can get breast cancer.........

It's probably a hormonal thing related to puberty. Guys have breast tissue too and they can get tender at times. It is very rare for guys or girls in their teens to get breast cancer. In my personal experience, I have only known 2 older (late 50) men who got it. One I met while I was doing chemotherapy and the other last week at the doctor's office.

Only about 2% of people who get breast cancer are men.

I agree with Knittinmama, however, you should tell your doctor just to be sure. If it is 'something' then you want to catch it as early as possible.

it think it is a hormonal problem and not realy look like a cancer for you
maybe you getting matured

Men can get breast cancer, but it is EXTREMELY unusual, for anyone, male or female, of your age to have it.

It is a disease largely associated with ageing - 80% of people diagnosed with it are over 50. Most breast lumps are not cancerous, and few cancerous lumps are painful.

This sounds as if it is hormonal and developmental; it is far more likely to be this than breast cancer.

However if you are still worried it will do no harm, and will almost certainly put your mind at rest, to see your doctor.

to me it sounds like you got a pretty bad titty twister from someone and can't remember it ever happening or else you got a bad piece of hair that grows there and forrgot to pluck it off and it grew back in but to be safe you should consult your doctor to better know what is wrong and good luck
