Although rare, men can develop breast cancer. It is important to recognize the signs and symptoms so you can seek medical treatment as early as possible. These include: • A painless lump or thickening in your breast tissue. • Changes to the skin covering your breast, such as dimpling, puckering, redness or scaling. • Changes to your nipple, such as redness or scaling, or a nipple that begins to turn inward. • Discharge from your nipple. Risk factors include high levels of estrogen, which may be caused by medications, obesity, heavy alcohol use, and liver disease.
