View allI've had a greenish lump under the skin on the left side of my chest for 34 years. It doesn't hurt but has a nucleus, and lately I feel like it's gotten bigger. Could this be something serious and which specialist should I see? Would I need surgery to remove it?

I've had grey hair for 34 years, and now Ive noticed my beard is turning grey-white too. I tried using Altris gel as my doctor suggested for 34 months, but it didn't help. Is there any real cure for this issue? It really concerns me.
Altris gel you will have to use it for a year or so to see results. And deficiencies have to be corrected as well. There are clinical studies showing results with this but you will have to do it long term .
