Chest swelling-niple area

2016-06-06 07:15:43
My 14-year old son has a slight swelling around his nipple area. It has been there for a few months now. It does not hurt or itch. It is not hard nor is there a rash. Is this something I should be worried about? What tests should I get done to get this checked?
