Can soreness in the male nipples and hardness behind them mean gynecomastia or something else and does it get worse?
human
23 year old male, recently discovered both of my nipples were very sore to the touch and felt like there was a hard lump behind them. Didn't think much about it until i squeezed them and a clear like fluid came out. Naturally, I became nervous and researched causes. One of the major causes I found was Gynecomastia. I have not noticed any enlargement of the area around the nipple. The nipple is just semi swollen and still very tender to the touch. Another cause was male breast cancer but the symptoms do not match what I have going on. If it is gynecomastia does it progress and get worse? could it be something else?

Increase  in breast size at your age can be due to gynecomastia.  You can forget about cancer as it can not affect both breast together at same time.  I think you can show to a surgeon,  who will prescribe you antibiotics and pain killers.  How is your body profile I mean are you a little towards fatty  side. This can contribute to big breast.
