Hi, I'm a 23 year old male and three years ago, I discovered a lump under my left nipple and was worried about it. I tried getting it checked but doctor didn't seem concerned about it and said to keep an eye on it for any changes. Flash forward to three years and it's still here. I've also got the occasional stinging pain and nipple points outwards than right.

The photos aren't great. But if you feel a lump which has been unchanged for three years, it is most likely gynecomastia. It should be properly evaluated however. You need a good exam and possibly further workup.

I'll try to make an appointment. Also, got clearer shots of my chest. Noticed a few things like I can't feel it much when I lay down .Looking at it now, you think this is gyno?

This is mild gyne with mild puffy nipples.  It is not diagnosed by whether or not you can feel "something" under the nipple.

If it bothers you, then I suggest you consult with a gyne expert in your area or consider traveling for such expertise.
