I've been dealing with enlarged male breasts for the past 12-15 years and it's really bothering me. Is there any way to reduce or remove them without surgery? I'm worried about the condition and looking for non-surgical options.

Enlarged male breasts (gynecomastia) can be treated with medication, but surgery remains the most permanent solution. Non-surgical methods like hormone therapy or weight management may help reduce symptoms.

View allMy height is 5.6 and weight 69 with breast size 38D. I've noticed my breasts are sagging is there any way to tighten them without surgery or changing their size? I'd prefer non-surgical options if possible. What would you recommend?
While you can't completely eliminate sagging or change breast shape without surgery, you can improve the appearance of your breasts and potentially slow down the process of sagging through non-surgical methods. Focus on strengthening the pectoral muscles with exercises like push-ups and chest presses, maintaining a healthy weight, and wearing a supportive bra

I'm really concerned about my toe since I had the toenail removed. It's been a week now, and the pain hasn't gone away. I make sure to get alternate dressings, but I'm worried that this isn't normal. Is there something else I should be doing, or is this typical for toenail removal recovery?
Potential Reasons for Persistent Pain 1. Infection: Bacterial or fungal infections can cause pain, redness, and swelling. 2. Nerve damage: The nerve endings in your toe may be irritated or damaged during the procedure. 3. Incomplete healing: The wound may not be healing properly, leading to ongoing pain. 4. Pressure or friction: Ill-fitting shoes or socks may be causing pressure or friction on the affected toe. 4. Keep the wound clean and dry: Continue with alternate dressing and ensure the wound is cleaned and dried properly. 5. Elevate your foot: Whenever possible, elevate your foot above the level of your heart to reduce swelling. 6. Wear comfortable shoes: Choose shoes that fit well and don't put pressure on the affected toe. and take pain killer and if there are any signs of infections then take antibiotics also
