On DH not me. One in the armpit and one near the nipple. They hurt to press. Is that a good sign? GP on Monday.

I'm no medic but if I had breast lumps which were painful I would be a little reassured by that. Obviously he is doing right in getting them checked as only a Dr can advise. Are these lumps mobile, so when he feels around them do they change position slightly, sorry if not explaining that very well

Sorry, I don't know the answer, but just to say he's doing the sensible thing and I hope it's all ok.

My DH had a lump near his nipple. Sadly it was cancer and he had to have a mastectomy of his 'moob' tissue. Please have him visit the GP asap. Hopefully it's nothing serious but you can't be too careful.

ETA: I don't recall that his lump hurt, so maybe the pain is a good sign.

Could be lymph nodes… Good luck at the GP.

Thank you everyone! GP tomorrow.
