Large Hard Lump Behind Old Man's Nipple
12 Answers
My elderly relative has many health problems for which he is treated. He is borderline underweight.
Yesterday he noticed a large hard lump behind his left nipple and indeed now has a proud and perky boob. It is not painful or hot and does not move. His right side is unaffected. However, it is noticeable even under clothing. There is nothing else odd as far as I can tell.
Anything to panic about?

He has recently had those sticky things stuck to his chest for an ECG and also a heart scan (like the ones pregnant ladies have) so I think if it had been there at that size then it would have been noticed. On balance, I'd say it has suddenly appeared. He hasn't injured himself in that area.
I shall phone the GP on Monday. I have LPA for him so can discuss his medical problems.
Thanks all.

Possible, I had one some years ago, it just went away.
I did have a scan which confirmed it was nothing to worry about.,
Visit to GP is best idea.
