I'm experiencing this hot sensation in my body that comes on suddenly, but then it goes away just as quickly. When this happens, I also feel like I'm sweating, but I don't have a fever. Could this be something I should be worried about?

View allI've been dealing with gynecomastia and want to know which specialist I should see for this. What's the usual treatment process would I need surgery or are there newer options with faster recovery and minimal scarring? If surgery is the way, what type of doctor should I consult for it?
For gynecomastia, you should consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon for surgical treatment or a cosmetic surgeon, or an endocrinologist if you suspect hormonal imbalance is a factor. Surgery is often the most effective solution, with liposuction and mastectomy being the main procedures. Newer, less invasive techniques offer faster recovery and minimal scarring.
