Brief Answer:
UGH and clinical Examination to confirm and get operated
Detailed Answer:
Hi.
Thanks for your query and an elucidate history.
To Recapitulate:
Male / 28 - suffering from Gynecomastia - overweight since childhood - increase in size - wants to know the simplest way to reduce the chest size.
I would advise you the following:
-Get an ultrasonography of the breast done to confirm whether this is just an increase in fat tissue or real development of breast tissues called Gynecomastia.
-Consult a General Surgeon or a Plastic Surgeon for clinical examination and discussion about the type of treatment and surgery if contemplated.
- Get operated for whatever the diagnosis as the treatment is almost same.
-There is no alternative treatment other than reducing the weight; but please remember that you will be benefited if this is just a fat collection; and there will be enhanced appearance if this is Gynecomastia.
Get investigated and treated as per the reports and your Surgeon's opinion.
Please feel free to ask for further relevant queries if you need to or if you feel that there is a gap-of-communication.
