In a simple word YES!!

yes pls stop squeezing

yes

they can but they have a wayyyy lower risk of getting it than women do

Never i thought.if a man has breast then he might be able to get it..It would be some kind of tumor for u..go and consult your doctor

Yes.

They most certainly can. Get it checked by a Dr ASAP.

Although I do beleive that cancer is not painful until you are at deaths door.

So it's either not cancer or you don't have much time left.

Sorry I'm not very good at trying to be funny.

Yes mae can and do get breast cancer.
this doesnt mean you have it. Could very well be a inflamation, or a sebacious cyst.
Get to a gp, have a ultrasound.

Yes, men can develop breast cancer, sorry.
I'd get it checked. It's probably just a swollen gland.
Good Luck!

Yep, shore can. So, you either have a pimple, cancer, or perhaps a glogged gland--get thee to a doctor!!

Yes,,, Incidence in men is 1 / 10000 may have cancer breast

IF IT IS HARD IT IS DEFINITELY SUSPICIOUS. YES MEN DO GET BREAST CANCER. BUT DON'T GET DEPRESSED. IT MAY BE A SIMPLE TUMOUR AFTER ALL. BUT DO NOT DELAY IN CHECKING IT UP BY A QUALIFIED SURGEON.
