Hi, I have a medium sized lump underneath my armpit. When I touch it there is a bigger lump,like a ball underneath the skin. The lump is raised and the skin is thinner on the lump . Its really sore and I was wondering what it was?. I am 59 and I weigh 230 pounds, Ive had these before..but smaller and less painful.
Hi, dairy have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You may have enlarged lymph node. It can be due to reactive hyperplasia, tuberculosis, lymphoma or metastatic carcinoma. Or it can be due to some soft tissue tumor. You should go for fine needle aspiration cytology or biopsy of that lump. It will give you exact diagnosis. Then you should take treatment accordingly.
