He is going to the doc next week. He has puffy sensitive nipples. I'm hopping it can be cured without surgery. I think it's early enough. I'm not prone to gyno, so I'm not exactly sure when it's to late. What do you guys think? T Bone IP: Logged |

I also had that during puberty! It went away in a week or two! I think he will be fine, it�s pretty common. /Komo IP: Logged |

it is totally normal, he should be fine in a couple of months. It happens to most all males at this age. IP: Logged |

Thank Guys, I'ts come and gone for the last six months but now it's been there for over a month straight. Just a little worried. He is embarresed and summers comming up. He is very lean so it doesn't look right. Not that it ever looks right but i am used to seeing it on the chubby kids. Thanks, IP: Logged |

My 14 yr old step son has the protruding nippies also. I hope he never decides to gas up cuz he will get gyno for sure. I took him to the doc and the doc said it was normal, but I wanted it documented that he was there for that reason cuz I know when he is older he wants to compete, so he will be using. This way if he does need surgery, the insurance won't give a problem cuz he was at the doc for it in his teens. Good thinking on my part. IP: Logged |

I had it when I was young also. I actually had a lump develop under my right nipple. I didn't do anything specail for it. The Dr. said that it would go away. After about a month the lump when away, but some puffines remained. Do your son a favor and take him for the surgey/treatment. At that age, insurance will cover it, and the procedure is safe for teenagers as long as he doesn't go under. IP: Logged |

im with massmonster on this one give him till he is 15.. then if it is still bad get the surgery.. insurance will still cover it.. ... i think everyone gets it to a certain extent.. your hormones are really fucking with you at that age....probably worse than when you are on.... it wasnt brought up but I think considering any type of anti estrogen would be a bad idea.....Im not sure what it would do but I would think it might posssibly risk his future growth potential... or maybe turn him into a monster VK IP: Logged |

Get a copy of your sons medical records for the future. If he does not see the doc for 5-7 years they will frequently toss the files. Most states only require docs keep records 5-7 years. IP: Logged |
