    Dear Ahri,

    My suggestion to you is to go to your physician for an examination. Is this hard circular object moveable or is it fixed to the underlying tissue? How large in mm or cm is the mass?

    You need to make an appointment ASAP! May I ask your age? While it is rare for men to have breast cancer, it can occur.

    I look forward to hearing from you.

    I am a Nurse Practitioner in the States.

    Best Regards

    Merry Juliana

      Dear Ahri,

      Please make an appointment to see your physician today. If it is fixed, meaning you cannot lift the mass up, it could possibly be cancer. If it has smooth borders, it is more likely benign. You will need a mammogram, and possibly a biopsy. Does the mass have smooth borders? How large is it?

      I had breast cancer. Which country are you located?

      Please let me know when you have your appointment and mammogram. I know you are worried. I care about you.

      Best Regards

      Merry Juliana
