If you find any signs or symptoms of male breast cancer and / or are at risk for it, visit your doctor as soon as you are able. Early detection and diagnosis can significantly increase your chances of successful treatment and survival.  Make sure your doctor’s office knows why you are scheduling the exam so that your doctor can provide prompt attention to your symptoms or concerns. Tell your doctor about any symptoms of male breast cancer that you have including changes to your breast appearance and the way it feels. Alert the doctor to any lumps or irregularities you felt during a breast self-exam. Since there are other reasons for breast changes in men, giving a thorough and honest history is important and should include any medications, herbs, or supplements that you are taking or receiving from other professionals. Not providing proper information could hinder your doctor’s ability to diagnose cancer or another condition. If your doctor suspects breast cancer, he or she will likely perform a clinical breast exam and order further testing. Tests including biopsies and imaging tests can better help your doctor diagnose breast cancer, determine the extent of the disease, and develop the best treatment plan for you.  Allow your doctor to examine your breasts and perform a clinical breast exam. Like a self-exam, a clinical breast exam will include your doctor using his or her fingertips to feel for lumps or other changes in your breasts and surrounding tissues. The exam can also tell your doctor things such as the size of any lumps, the way they feel, and their proximity to your skin and muscles. Make sure to let the doctor know if you experience any pain during the exam. Get imaging tests including mammograms, ultrasounds, CT scans, and MRIs if your doctor prescribes them. These tests can help your doctor more closely look at tissue irregularities and determine the extent of any cancer you may have. Have a biopsy to remove lumps or suspect breast tissue. Biopsies, where a fine needle is inserted into the tissue to remove tissue for laboratory analysis, can also help determine if you have breast cancer and, if so, what type of cancer it is. If testing discovers that you have cancer, your doctor will develop a treatment based on the severity of your condition. There are different treatment options for male breast cancer, all of which can successfully treat and cure the disease. Remember that early detection and diagnosis are key to treatment.  Talk to your doctor about your treatment options and any concerns you may have. Ask questions about the diagnosis and nature of your breast cancer as well as the best ways to treat your specific case. Consider surgery such as a mastectomy to remove any tumors and surrounding tissue. In addition, you may require surgical removal of one lymph node to help determine if your breast cancer has spread. Undergo radiation therapy, which uses high-energy beams from sources like X-rays to eliminate breast cancer cells In many cases, radiation is combined with mastectomy to most effectively kill and remove breast cancer cells. Receive chemotherapy drugs by pill or intravenously to kill cancer cells. Chemotherapy can be used in conjunction with surgery and may be a good option for men with advanced cases of breast cancer. Consider hormone therapy if your breast cancer is hormone-sensitive. This usually includes taking the medication tamoxifen, which many women with breast cancer also take. Be aware, though, that other hormone therapies used on female breast cancer patients do not work for men. Try targeted drug therapy, which attacks defects in cancer cells. Drugs such as Herceptin and Avastin may slow or even stop the growth of cancer cells; however, they can come with the side effect of heart damage.  Ask your doctor about participating in a clinical trial for male breast cancer. This option may provide you with a new and different treatment method that can kill your breast cancer. If you receive a diagnosis of male breast cancer, it may shock and upset you. Using different methods to cope with the disease can help you better deal with any stress or challenges that may arise because of the disease. You might want to try:  Talking with a trusted person or medical professional about your diagnosis Praying or meditation to help calm yourself Exercising, which can help you feel better physically and mentally Undertaking creative activities such as music, art, and dance, all of which can help you de-stress and feel better Joining a local or national male breast cancer support group

Article: You’ll want a flat, stable surface with plenty of space to spread out your materials in a well-lit and well-ventilated room. If possible, try not to pick an area in a room with rugs, as paint will be more difficult to remove from carpet than wood or tile. Begin by washing your hands. Then, using a cotton ball soaked in nail polish remover, remove any previous polish from your nails. Hold the cotton ball against your nail for about ten seconds, and then swipe in a side-to-side motion. Use a Q-tip and nail polish remover to clean the edges of your nail. It’s a good idea to use nail polish remover even if you don’t have any polish on. This will remove natural oils that might prevent the paint from properly adhering to your nail. You’ll want your nails to match, so they should all be the same length. Start by cutting them down, and then use a file to smooth out the rough edges. You can also use your file to shape your nails into either a rounded or squared edge, depending on your preference. Be sure to file in one direction, from the outside toward the center of the nail, rather than in a back-and-forth motion. This will prevent your nails from breaking. Your cuticles are the little strips of skin at the base of each of your nails. When you push this skin down, you get a cleaner looking manicure and a broader area of your nail for painting and decorating! Use a cuticle stick to gently move this skin down to the very bottom of your nail bed. You may want to soak your fingers in hot water for a few minutes before you push back your cuticles. The water will soften the skin and make the process easier. Do this instead of shaking the bottle, as this motion will warm and mix the polish without creating bubbles. Avoiding bubbles results in a smoother manicure. Start with a base coat, and then let it dry for about five to ten minutes. Next, apply two coats of your chosen color, allowing each coat to dry completely before applying the next one. Finish it off with your choice of nail art. Once your nail art is dry, apply your final coat of clear polish. This will prevent the nail polish from cracking or chipping, and it will add some extra shine to your nails. Be sure to apply a swipe of polish on the underside of your nail for added protection.
