Is This a Serious Problem? Posted: 02-14-07 10:06am
Hi i'm 14 and turning 15 in a few days but
i've been noticing a slight lump forming
under my left nipple and I am a male so I
don't really see breast cancer as the
problem. The other day I also started
noticing blind spots in my eye fallowed by
a bad headache and lately at night i've
been hearing a sound almost like wind that
seems to beat to the same rythym as my
heart beat as well. Most of this can be
traced back to puberty but i'm not sure if
I should do anything about it or not. By
the way i've realized the ear problem is
probably pulsating tinnitus which can be
realated to something as serious as a
tumor or as little as an ear infection.
I'm a little self-consciece and worried
about talking to people about it so if
it's nothing i'd rather not make a big
deal out of it. Thanks!

First let me dispell a myth that men can't
get breast cancer. Men do have breast
tissue it's just under developed. This is
also why if men were to take estrogen
their breast tissue would start to grow.
You need to have a general physical
because the sound your hearing could be a
sign of high blood pressure. migranes have
been known to cause visual disturbances.
But a check up would be prudent.

I would definately advise a checkup. the
amount of symptoms ou have listed will be
red warning flags to any physician.
