Thoughts on this armpit lump?

Question

Answer

That definitely looks like a swollen/irritated lymph node. They are not uncommon to get if you are a frequent deodorant user, especially after shaving or waxing. Like any other pores on your body, they can get filled with sweat and deodorant build up and cause irritation to the pore. You should treat it like you would a pimple.

Answer

Okay so you have lymph nodes in your armpit and if could actually be infected or worse...definitely get it checked out ASAP. My friends gf just got diagnosed with cancer a few months back because she woke up one morning and the lymph nodes on her neck were so swollen and it turned out it was cancer. I don't mean to scare you but don't take the lump lightly! Go see a doc soon!

Answer

Most likely swollen lymph nodes. Very common but see a doctor ASAP because you never know. If it hurts it's a good sign. If it doesn't hurt it could be cancerous but you're probably fine!

Answer

I've had 3 or 4 of those it looks like a boil. I would reccomend using spray on deodorant not rubbing bc that's how u get them. it's a bacteria virus that spreads and that's how u get them. I got rid of mine by putting castor oil and neosporin (not really sure if I spelled that right but oh well 😂) on a big bandaid. leave it on overnight and repeat for abt 4-5 days. Hope this helps ik they hurt it sucks sorry u have one 😔💖

Looks like a cyst or ingrown hair. I get them from time to time. Dr says use antibacterial soap, a fresh razor or razor cleaned with alcohol but i now use nair. If it gets bigger or becomes very painful u may need to get it lanced.

Answer

Anytime you notice any Kind on bumps in your armpits or in or around your breasts you need to see a doctor ASAP because even though it COULD be something minor it could be cancer. Breast cancer runs in my family, it's soooo vital that you atleast have a doctor look at it.
