Lump under my arm

I've had this kinda thing before, sometimes I get spots in my armpit, never really big ones, but I've just found a new one, it looks like a regular spot but when u touch it it feels like a really large lump, and hurts quite a bit to touch....should I get it checked out?

You should.

Its best to get these things checked out. Im sure its nothing, probably a gland or soemthing but it is best to get checked.

Don't worry, it's most likely just a swollen lymph node, because you have a spot. It's nothing to worry about, just a normal immune response. If it doesn't go down in a week, maybe then go to the doctors. But I'm sure you'll be fine :smile:

if it hurts then it's not likely to be anything big and nasty...i get these from time to time and they're just swollen lymph nodes..or...if you're female and shave your armpits, you can give yourself an infected follicle and that causes a lump that hurts too. It should go away in a few days. If it doesn't go see a doc.

Don't panic, they're swollen lymph nodes and usually it lasts about a week. It just means your body is fighting off some sort of infection, sometimes your aware with it like a bad cold or flu, other times you're not.

I can sympathise though, it hurts bad sometimes.
