I've had gynecomastia under just my right nipple for the past 13 years it stays the same size but hurts when I press it. Does ayurveda offer any treatment options that don't involve surgery?

For gynecomastia, Ayurveda may offer herbal treatments or massage therapies to reduce breast size, but surgery is generally more effective if the condition persists.

I'm feeling this painful lump on my chest that really hurts when I press on it. I noticed that the muscle there feels uneven and doesn't seem normal compared to the other side. My right chest even looks bigger and kind of more girlish, with a darker brownish-pink color compared to the left side, which seems normal. Is this something I should be worried about? What could be causing these changes?

That could be Gybaecomastia,no need to worry visit General surgeon for further evaluation
