Insufficient gland excision after gynecomastia surgery? (Photos)

Asked By:metroswimmer in Usadel, DE

I had surgery about five months ago to correct some mild gyno – but I think I still have some residual tissue. My surgeon insists there's no more gland, but I can feel something hard behind my nipple. My chest sags when I bend over, too. Is it merely swelling, or do I need the excess gland removed?
