I am 25 years old male, for the past several years my areola is swollen, which feels uncomfortable, and there is no pain or lump or discharge in the nipple, but it returns to normal after exercise or bathing or rubbing. Then after some time it becomes abnormal again. What could be the reason for this. Please advise.

Its normal, if no pain, lump or discharge then nothing to worry. Its mostly because of excess fat. You can send me a photo to be sure by privately consulting me on Lybrate.

Enlarged male breast tissue (gynecomastia) gynecomastia is an enlargement or swelling of breast tissue in males. It is most commonly caused by male estrogen levels that are too high or are out of balance with testosterone levels.
