I'm a 22-year-old male, and I've recently noticed that my nipples are puffy. When I press them, I can feel a lot of lumps underneathsome are small, some are big, flat, or even pointed, and they're quite painful. Should I be worried about this? Is there something specific I should do or look out for?

It sounds like you may be experiencing a condition called gynecomastia, which is the swelling of breast tissue in boys or men caused by an imbalance of the hormones estrogen and testosterone. In your case, the presence of painful lumps in both nipples could indicate a more severe form of gynecomastia. I recommend you to take Ibuprofen 400mg twice a day for pain relief and to reduce inflammation. Additionally, you can use a topical pain relief gel like Voltaren gel on the affected area. However, it is important to consult with a doctor for further evaluation and management of your condition.

I've been given injections of Nandrolone Decanoate 250mg on Monday and Testosterone Cypionate 250mg on Tuesday. I'm really concerned about getting these fluids out of my system. How can I deal with this issue?
To reduce fluid retention after receiving Nandrolone Decanoate and Testosterone Cypionate injections, consider increasing urine production and reducing water retention through methods such as drinking plenty of water, increasing potassium-rich food intake, elevating legs, avoiding excessive sodium, and incorporating diuretic-friendly foods like asparagus, celery, and cucumbers
