Actor Tyler Mane, known for “X-Men” and “Halloween”, said his wife “saved” his life after she encouraged him to have a seemingly harmless lump checked. He was subsequently diagnosed with the rare condition of male breast cancer, and is using his experience to urge men not to dismiss unusual changes to their bodies.

Mane discussed the diagnosis in a Fox News interview while promoting his new podcast, “Mane AF.” The article stresses that breast cancer can affect men as well as women, with Mane encouraging people to advocate for their health and seek medical advice about suspicious lumps.
