Answer I'm a 34 year old male.. not a doctor but I too had this condition at this age. I was told it was part of my body maturing, and that some boys get this and some don't. I think it has a name, but I'm not sure of it now, but it deals with when boys start to grow breasts.
Go see your family doctor. It may or may not be serious. Go visit the Doc.
If you feel a lump or mass behind your nipple which you have not noticed in the past, it is very important to have this evaluated by a doctor. Though not widely publicized, men DO get breast cancer.

Well I actually had the same problem when I was 12 you know. It was like a lump underneath it and it hurt but it went away. Ask your son if he feels a lump. ************** Often boys will develop a small bit of breast tissue immediately under the nipple with the onset of puberty called gynecomastia. This is simply due to all the surge in hormones. This can affect one nipple or both, and can be tender to touch. This is very normal and will typically resolve in ~months.
He needs to be taken to be looked at by a qualified vet.

You will grow small lumps under your nipple and it will be swollen for about a year. This usually happens when your voice is changing.

Breast knots in young males are not uncommon and, by themselves, are generally nothing to worry about. The underlying question here is, of course, could this be cancer? While childhood cancer is thankfully rare, it can occur, so there are some things to look for... * When they appear before age 10 (excluding newborns) and after 15 (especially when puberty is complete). * When they last longer than 2 years. * When other symptoms of illness appear, such as unexplained weight loss or night sweats. * When the lump is larger 1 inch in diameter or seems to spread out in a stellate (star-like) pattern. * When it appears fixed to the skin, or there is dimpling over it. * When the lump appears somewhere other than directly under the nipple. * If the nipples leak fluid, such as blood, clear fluid or milk (yes it can happen in boys). Presence of any of these symptoms is not diagnostic of cancer, but a boy displaying even one of them, should be seen by his doctor forthwith.
