4 Male Breast Cancer Symptoms You Should Never Ignore

When we talk about breast cancer, we rarely talk about the men who are diagnosed with the condition.

So often, we assume breast cancer is exclusively a women’s disease, says Dr. Kristen Fernandez, medical director of the breast center at the MedStar Franklin Square Medical Center in Maryland.

“Men think they don’t have breast tissue, but they do,” she explains to MensHealth.com.

Guys have less breast tissue than women do, so their risk of developing breast cancer is comparatively more rare. In fact, guys make up less than one percent of breast cancer cases.

But the risk of a man developing breast cancer still exists, and Fernandez says many men often ignore the symptoms.

While guys don’t necessarily need to perform regular self breast exams, Fernandez strongly believes that guys should occasionally check for pain or lumps in their breast tissue. And if you do experience pain, “don’t ignore it” and see a doctor right away, she says.


In advance of Breast Cancer Awareness Month this October, here are four symptoms of breast cancer that guys should watch out for.

1) Lumps

Guys often ignore lumps on their chest, thinking they may have just bumped themselves while doing yard work, says Fernandez. But a lump in your pecs can be a sign of breast cancer. Typically painless, these lumps can be accompanied by tenderness in the area, especially when touched, she says. If the cancer has spread, swelling can be found under the armpit, in the lymph nodes, or around the collar bone.

2) Inverted nipple

As a breast cancer tumor grows, it begins to pull on ligaments inside the breast, causing the nipple to invert or become dented, Fernandez explains. Sometimes, the inverted nipple will be accompanied by dry, scaly skin in the area.

3) Nipple discharge


Guys may notice stains on their shirts and simply chalk them up to spills, says Fernandez. But if stains always appear on the same side of the chest, then it could be nipple discharge. This happens because fluid from the tumor builds up and leak out of the nipple duct.

4) Open sores

In extreme cases, men may develop an open sore on the nipple because the tumor is “almost growing through the skin,” says Fernandez. “That’s a cancer that’s sort of been ignored,” she explains. Since men have very little breast tissue, it’s possible for the tumor to push through the skin. The sore will look like a picked pimple, she says.

Trump describes meeting with Buhari as' so lifeless', says report



US president, Donald Trump, called his Nigeria counterpart, Muhammadu Buhari, lifeless after their April meeting,  claimed global business newspaper, Financial Times in a recent publication.

Buhari and Trump met at the White House on April 30. Both leaders discussed issues bordering on fighting terrorism and economic growth.

However, as Trump is set to welcome President  Uhuru Kenyatta  of Kenya, Financial Times in an article titled  Africa looks for something new out of Trump claimed that the US leader described his April meeting with Buhari as ‘so lifeless’.



The paper added that Trump warned his aides that he never wanted to meet someone so lifeless again.

“The first meeting, with Nigeria’s ailing 75-year-old Muhammadu Buhari in April, ended with the US president telling aides he never wanted to meet someone so lifeless again, according to three people familiar with the matter,” the newspaper claimed.

The paper quoted three sources familiar with the incident, which it claimed occurred at a private meeting on January 12.

Previously, Trump had in a press meeting held by the two leaders praised the Buhari’s administration. The 72 years old had then called Nigeria one of the most beautiful places on earth, adding that he would love to visit someday.

Trump had, then, commended Buhari’s effort in tackling corruption and insurgency.

Ways to Keep Rats Away From Eating Your Car Wires



Rats they are omnivorous like all rodents, need to chew. Chew anything they can find to keep their incisors from growing through their jaws, but they find the wiring of cars particularly delicious chewing which translate into expensive repairs. If by chance you happen to have some food stashed away in your car, that’s a bonanza for the rats. A car provides for plenty of chewing stuff like Plastic, carpet, seat fabric, anything.
I have even seen a rat chew through the fuel line of a car. The worst part is when a live rat running around and chewing through stuff in your car die. A dead rat in the AC system of a car with smell that is stomach-churning and the car had to be aired out thoroughly even after a disinfectant wash for a couple of days. Such is the menace of rats. Another person had his entire instrument panel go dead because of rats chewing through a critical set of wires that resulted in an expensive wiring harness replacement. Here are some 7 tips to help prevent the rats’ nastiness and costly repairs.
Are They in Your Car?



1. Leave Your Car Bonnet Open: Rats love dark place to nest. This idea may help discourage them but may not be the ultimate solution, do this if you have a secure parking garage in your house.

2. Check under The Bonnet: Rats love the engine bay especially the air filter, cold air intake, air vents and the bonnet. This is also where most of the delicious wiring that they we be chewing up is located, ensure that the air filters and hoses are free of things rats may have stored. It would even be better to have your car professionally steam wash cleaned to ensure all rats’ evidence is removed.

3. Thoroughly Clean Your Car: Remove used food plates, left over junks wrap from the car.

4. Use Rat Trap: Place rat trap on the front, back and top of the tire tread of your front two tires, bait them with oily food and replace the bait once a week only set these trap anytime the car is parked using the old fashioned spring snap rats trap. Don’t use rat poison it attract more rats also to avoid its rotting smell.

5. Clean your Parking Area: Always clean your parking area, keep the area free of garbage that rats are likely to pickup and store in your car.

6. Don’t Let Car Sit Unused: Drive it once in a while to discourage rats from doing mechanical or electrical work.

7. Finally get a cat, but only if you can deal with a cat keeping a cat as a pet.

Police officer hailed a hero after she was snapped breastfeeding malnourished baby



A female police officer who breastfed a malnourished baby in Argentina has been hailed a hero for her selfless act.

Celeste Ayala, an Argentine police officer, was on duty at the Sister Maria Ludovica Children’s Hospital, in Buenos Aires, when she heard a baby crying intensely. She made enquiries and was told the child's mother was not able to fully provide care for the child who looked malnourished, "smelly and dirty."

Ayala's mother instincts immediately kicked in and she asked staff if she could help the infant. After doctors gave her permission to nurture the infant, she cuddled the baby boy and breastfed
him. She explained that watching the infant cry for attention and food prompted her to take action.

She said: "I noticed that he was hungry, as he was putting his hand into his mouth, so I asked to hug him and breastfeed him.

The moment at the hospital in Buenos Aires was photographed by another police officer, Marcos Heredia, who then shared the image on Facebook.

Her caption for the photo, when translated into English, reads:

I want to make public this great gesture of love that you had today with that baby, who without knowing you did not doubt and for a moment you fulfilled how if you were his mother.

You did not care about THE MUM AND THE SMELL as the professional gentlemen of the hospital manifested.
Ayala has been praised by millions who saw the photo. She was especially praised for not discriminating against the child who hospital staff described as "smelly and dirty."

After the photo went viral the fire department where Ayala serves as a volunteer took to social media to praise her.

Gul Hamid Sells His Trophies To Survive - Sports - Nairaland

Gul Hamid, a tennis star who now lives with his second wife in a remote village near Wah Cantt, now sells his trophies to survive. Gul Hamid's first wife and children live in Karachi, whom he has to feed too.

The 68-year-old tennis star who has been playing tennis for the last 50 years won three International Tennis Federation cups, which include an ITF hat-trick from 2008 to 2010, the 1986 Oman Open and three gold medals from Pakistan Navy, where he served as a petty officer.
He told Geo TV;

“I took my cups to sell to Arif Sahib, at Pakistan Sports Board, as I had no choice.”


“I prefer death over insults at the hands of a landlord who knocks at my door asking for rent, which I have been managing through thick and thin until now,” he says.

“It was really an amazing day of my life when I beat Krishna Bhopatti of India in the Oman Open in 1986. It was a big victory amidst an international crowd of fifteen thousand,” he adds.

According to the tennis star, Bhopatti, whose son Mahesh Bhopatti is currently an international tennis star even asked him to travel to India and train tennis players there.

“I thanked Bhopatti for the offer and told him I need to train our children in Pakistan,” he says.

“I am 68 now, and it’s probably the time for me and my wife to sit on Mussala (praying mat) and not running around for a living,” he adds.

Gul Hamid said he told Chief of Army Staff General Qamar Javed Bajwa and Prime Minister Imran Khan, to fix a reasonable monthly stipend for him or give him at least some low-grade job like a groundsman. He also recounted his golden days through plastic coated newspaper clippings and commendations spread on a charpoyee.
