I have nickel sized raised lump in right armpit. I have attempted to puncture the lump to reduce swelling but it has not reduced size. I am a 55 year old female with a family history of breast cancer. My sister and maternal aunt died from breast cancer. I had a mammogram 3 weeks ago with no findings
Hi, It seems that there might be having enlarged axillary lymph node. It shows that there might be having some infection in surrounding area like arms, neck or breast. But as mammogram is normal nothing to worry about cancer. Go for short antibiotic medicine course for 5 days. Do not try to prick the lump as it might aggravate infection. Ok and take care.
