Gynecomastia surgery takes about an hour or two to complete the entire procedure. It may, however, depend on the amount of tissue to be removed. Small incision is made by your doctor to perform the surgery and is performed under general anesthesia. Surgery takes about 1 to 2 weeks of time in recovery.

Hi lybrate-user, gynecomastia, the appearance of large male breasts, generally results from an imbalance of the sex hormones estrogen and testosterone. This can be the results of life changes, such as hitting puberty or middle-age, prescription medications, drug use, or illness. Please mention your son's height and weight also.

Varicose veins are usually caused by weak vein walls and valves. Inside your veins are tiny one-way valves that open to let the blood through, and then close to prevent it flowing backwards. Sometimes the walls of the veins become stretched and lose their elasticity, causing the valves to weaken.

There is no medication that can treat hernia whether it is allopathic or homeopathic. Surgery is the definitive option to treat the protruding organ and tear in the tissues. Homeopathic medicines may prevent hernia symptoms from getting worse.

In the majority of cases, gynecomastia goes on its own and it does not require any treatment. There are, however, surgery options available if the symptoms become severe. Surgery includes liposuction (breast fat is removed without removing the breast gland tissue), and mastectomy (breast gland tissue is removed by making small incisions. This involves less recovery time).

Surgery options include: 1) liposuction- this helps in removing the extra fat from the breast but not the breast gland tissue. 2) mastectomy- the surgery is performed to remove the breast gland tissue. ...more
