PUFFINESS FADES ONLY AFTER EXCERCISE

[kier]

hey guys, is this common for everyone??
I have gyno for several years but i've noticed that after i excercise (cardio) my puffy nipples contract and become smaller and the overall appearance of my gyno fades after a good cardio workout or even if my nipples are cold.  of course it soon goes back to its normal state after about 15-20 min. but i love lookin at myself for that duration of time.  i really think surgery is the only way for permanent results.  any views on this?  only other thing i would try instead of surgery is those steroid cremes. anyone tried them?

Same here.  When cold or after a hard workout, my areolas shrink very nicely and I have an almost decent shape to the chest.  Alas, as soon as my body is relaxed or warm, they puff and droop out more.  It's normal like this if you have gland tissue right underneath the areola.  Get yourself looked at by a QUALIFIED plastic surgeon. 

Steroid cremes usually (99%) of the time don't do anything for you.

Yes, thats how I was... they would tighten up during exercising, swimming or being cold... it was nice to workout and see my body without gyno for just a little bit.

When there is an medical problem such as an endocrinology disorder, medical treatments are the best first step.  The most common topical treatment is testosterone for those patients with low levels.  This is not applied to the chest, but to the skin (or by injection).  Such issues are best explored with an endocrinologist.

"Puffy Nipples" is a common public term for gynecomastia. 

The problem is the the term puffy nipples is a phrase that mean so many different things to so many different people.  Words just do not convey the actual problem very well - images do a little better, but still are not the same as an actual in office evaluation with your doctor.  This Gynecomastia Picture Gallery of Puffy Nipples begins to show some of the various problems patients have called "puffy."

Putting up pictures (using standard views before and after surgery) is one way to discuss what the problem was before surgery and what has happened.   Options depend on what is really going on.

Let us try to look what I mean by the problem of the words only descriptions.  "Large nips", "puffy nipples," "puffed nipples,"  and "puffy nips" are a common terms many give to a problem that extends to the region about the areola.   The nipple is actually the central raised structure inside the pigmented areola.

"Puffed nipples" can be a problem for some that involves long nipples above the areola where nipple reduction alone helps.

"Puffy Nipps" can be a problem behind the areola that can take many forms.  The deformity is usually a varying combination of fat and gland.  The gland can be firm or soft, spread through fat, or be a condensed mass.  There is a thin muscle under the areola skin that can flatten tissue when stimulated. Unfortunately it is impractical to keep stimulating these muscles.

In many of these patients with "puffy nipples," there was no firm tissue under the areola, just fat and soft gland.  Here is one example of puffy nipples in a muscular male.  Here is another example of   puffed nipples.  Here is another patient with puffy nipple gynecomastia.

"Puffy Nipples" can also be a combination of gynecomastia and big nipples.

I prefer my Dynamic Technique that adapts to the problem found during surgery to minimize such issues as residual deformity after surgery.

Hope this helps,
