i have posted some pics of my chest , i think it is gyno or its just a doubt , i don't have money for a doctor , when i press around the nipple it doesn't feel like a lump under nipple but its like a ring around the areola of nipple , doesn't feel any pain at all at that area, usually nipples are soft when i take bath or exercise or cardio they get get hard, most of fat is in lower chest but its not just around the nipple it is evenly spread around the lower chest, i am worried is it gyno ,does it look like gyno ? please help

    Your pics are not clear enough . If the area of concern is soft its just fat . Gynaecomastia is harder, and often tender. Its also benign and often just goes away as your hormones settle down. If you get any discharge from the nipple or puckering of the breast then you should see a professional.
