go to a free clinic and get it checked by a doctor or nurse….

I would go to the doctor and fast. I could be cancer or anything. I would rather be safe than sorry.

i believe its just a swollen gland. i have had those before and they hurt so bad. just wait it out and it will go away

is it under the skin? you have lymph nodes there and it should be checked out ASAP. Check the internet for free or pay on scale clinics.

go the HOSPITAL, they cannot refuse you care ..due to your insurance. It is usually the first sign of lymphatic cancer.

best wishes hope all is fine (male or female it still can be cancerous as males still have breast tissue)

Nothing right now. If it's a lymph node, it'll probably go away in a few days. If it's a cyst, it may not, but doesn't need immediate attention. If it's a boil, it'll will get worse and should be painful already. You need help with that.
Any lump that persist for weeks needs medical attention.
Good luck.

probably a gland in your armpit, blocked

Do you shave your armpits? If it is not a lymph node it could be a cyst from an ingrown hair. Have someone look to see if that's what it is, if it is: get a hot compress lift and remove the hair with a needle and tweezers (cleaned with alcohol) and squeeze out the liquid. It might hurt and it will look pretty gross if that's what it is so get someone with a strong stomach. Make sure you clean it really good afterward so you don't get infected. That is of course if that's what it is.

There are clinics in your area. Look for the county clinic, it should be based in your area,(city) I would get this checked out,as it may be harmless, but may be a sign of something worse. Not trying to alarm you, but if it is cancerous, it's best to catch it now. The medical field has come a long way in beating cancer, I know. (Lobectomy of my lower left lung, June the 8th, of last year. Caught in time!) There's always time, to find a way to pay the bill, if you're alive!

lumps should not be taken for granted.you should see a doctor. two months ago i undergone surgery on my armpit because i noticed a sort of pimple but it got worst. Case was only outpatient and cost was not that big.

Wow, I am resolving the same issue… also with breast symptoms so we are looking at lymph nodes…..
First, if you have any type of cold symptoms then it may be a swollen gland. If it is a cyst or (YUCK) sorry ~ZIT…. then take a hot bath and do NOT use deoderant until the problem resolves. You want to open the area with heat so that it may drain. DO NOT squeez… You may also want to heat a tea bag and place the hot tea bag under your arm. Use common sense and do not burn yourself, but make it hot. Put your arm down and keep the bag there for 5 minutes on and off….. You will see a "head" of white if it IS a "zit" (yuck , I KNOW, I know) but you asked <c; *wink*

Try soaking a cotton ball with witch hazel and holding on the area for a few minutes… then apply some boil creme ( walgreens) I also avoid shaving the direct area, and shirts with tight fitting areas around the pits to avoid friction.
IF u keeo getting these you may have hidradenitis Suppurativa.
