I'm a 21 year old male who has had puffy nipples for about 6 years now. What should I do?

June 10, 2015

My nipples started it changing when I was 14/15 yrs old. At first they used to hurt me and I used to squeeze them sometimes. The pain stopped after the first year. But my nipples became puffier and puffier along the yrs. My right hand side nipple looks especially deformed & weird. I feel there is a lump beneath both my nipples (right hand feels a bit larger). I had visited a doctor last year that said I don't have gyno & told me there is nothing wrong. I am very self conscious about this issue.
