I'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.

View allI'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 noticed that every time I masturbate, my butt seems to be getting bigger. It's really bothering me because I feel like I'm gaining weight because of it. Could you help me understand what's going on and what I should do about it? I'm feeling pretty worried and would love some advice.
Masturbation itself doesn't directly cause weight gain or increase buttock size
