Hi - Your chances of having breast cancer, as a man, are infinitely small; only about 1,950 men a year, out of an American population of about 150 million, develop breast cancer. And, it would most likely manfest itself as a lump in your breast, not a brown-head lump in your armpit. Please keep your eye on this, though; if it doesn't disappear within a few weeks, you might want to see your family doctor and identify what it is, and whether it should be treated. Good luck - PJH

I will suggest you see your healthcare provider for tests so you know for sure what to do.
No matter the result be strong and you'll be well.
