Thank you for all your well wishes! I realized in the middle of the night that I had another lump on the OTHER armpit....So went to the doctor this morning and I do indeed have an infection as he confirmed that it is my lymph nodes that are swollen.

I got a Z-Pac and he told me to come back in next week if they are still swollen. '

Thanks everyone!

ya it does hurt! and its a hard thing..feels like a tumor or something..its from shaving

I get them too..the good thing is that doctors say about these things..the more the merrier..the lumps in the armpits are likely cysts

I get them all the time. Usuaully they are just swollen bc you're body is fighting off some type of infection. I had a tiny one that took at least a month to go down on the back of my neck.
