5Changes in the skin around breasts

According to oncologists and cancer specialists, any sort of rash or redness around the breast area can be a sign of active inflammatory breast cancer in men. Usually, the skin breaks up in rashes and oedema mimicking an infection in the chest muscle tissues due to accumulation of fluids. If any such abnormalities are noticed, consult a doctor immediately.

6Change in the shape of nipples itself

This again is a telltale sign of an active cancerous development in male breast tissues. Usually, 40-50% cases of male breast cancer involves a stage in which the appearance of the nipple area has drastically altered due to swelling or retraction or inversion in which the nipples seem to be inverted. There will also be redness and scaling. This condition of nipple retraction can be a benign condition but its best to get a checkup done.
