How To Treat The Male Enlarged Nipple And Breast?

My son has a nipple that has enlarged. I understand that this a signed of puberty. I have already taken him to see his doctor. How long does it take before his breast nipple returns to normal? In addition, it is said that the breast enlargement is due to a hormonal imbalance and once his hormones return to normal the breast enlargement should decrease. When will his hormones become back balance? In addition, my son has developed a rash around his neck and top torso and face (small fine bumps). He does has exzema, what can I do to treat this? His prescribe creams do not work.

Thanks for asking in healthcaremagic forum
Usually pubertal breast enlargement is seen in some males. It reverts back to normal after some time. But, if it persists for more than 2 years then it is less likely to subside on its own. If that is the case then you may have to visit a surgeon for cure if required.
Regarding your son's rashes, please provide a pic/any associated symptoms like itching/pain/discharge over there for further management.
All the best.
