Could i possibly own cancer?

I am a 13 year old male. I have a lump, it feel like it is right in my right nipple and it isnt big, but not very small. it dosent hurt unless i press on it. could i own cancer?
Answers:    Doubt it, at right about that age you get small lumps in both nipples that run away after about 6 months. Don't worry, it isn't cancer, nor are you growing boobs.
Hello Keo night:
ging too. But most men who get breast cancer are
over counterbalance and over 50 with a strong family history of breast
cancer.
I would say you are a moment ago growing. Enjoy life while you are
lay ball or some fun stuff close to that.
The chances of a 13 year old male getting breast cancer are as close to zilch as makes no difference. No, you don't have cancer.

Yes, men CAN get breast cancer; it's few and far between though - fewer than 1% of those diagnosed with breast cancer are male. And most men diagnosed beside it are over 60, though through breast cancer support networks I have met a very few men in their overdue 40s and 50s with breast cancer.

80% of all people diagnosed with breast cancer are over 50. It's occasional in women under 40, fewer than 0.1% of women diagnosed are underneath 30, and it's almost unheard of in under 25s.

So you can see how unlikely it would be for a teenage manly to have breast cancer
breast lumps in men are actually a condition call gynaecomastia, a button-like growth under the nipple and areola area that can be felt and is sometimes distinct to the naked eye and occasionally it can be quite tender.

This increase in the amount of breast tissue is not a tumour and occur due to changes in hormone balances at times approaching adolescence - your age in other words.


This is almost certainly what you enjoy; talk to your parents for reassurance or mention it to your doctor next time you see her/him so that s/he can reassure you.
