Gynecomastia is the
enlargement of a man's breasts and is a common issue that plagues men and boys
in and around Richfield MN throughout different stages in their lives. There
are many causes for this condition. Richard S. Werner M.D.'s office can help
with gynecomastia; Richfield MN residents have come to his office for this
issue and others throughout the years, and he has several satisfied and happy customers in and around the Richfield MN area.
Causes
Gynecomastia is usually
caused by hormone imbalances and it most often affects newborn babies, boys who
are going through puberty and older men as they age and their hormone levels
change. There are other causes for this condition, but hormone imbalances are
the most common.
Health Issues
There are no known health
issues associated with gynecomastia, other than psychological ones, as it can
be difficult to cope with and can hinder self-esteem in the men who suffer from
it. Sometimes, men can experience some pain in their breasts, but most of the
time, sufferers report feelings of embarrassment and other problems with their
emotional health and well-being.
Solutions
Sometimes, gynecomastia
will go away on its own, especially as boys mature and develop. Exercise and
lifting weights will not get rid of this fatty tissue though. However,
sometimes it needs to be treated by an experienced Richfield MN plastic
surgeon, like Richard S. Werner M.D. There is a procedure men can have that
will remove the fatty tissue surgically. Normally, this is a routine procedure
and does not result in a lot of scarring.
