Swollen Lymph Nodes In Armpits And Swollen Nipple Posted: 10-23-07 22:15pm
24 year old male, in good health.
About a week ago I noticed a swollen lymph
node in my right armpit. It was there for
a few days and went away. Around the time
it went away a swollen lymphnode appeared
in my left armpit. Now it was been about
a week and I have three swollen in the
left and one in the right. These are
painful, but not excessively. I also
noticed a slight pain in my left nipple,
which also feels some what like it is
swollen, but it is hard to tell.
Nothing out of the ordinary has happened.
The only thing I can think of is that I
recently put in a hot tub at my home about
3 weeks ago and I have been using it daily
since. Could this be anyway related?
I am making an appointment to see a doc
tomorrow.

btw, Robert E Claus is not my name. Made
it up on the spot. Admins emailed me and
said I had to change it... so I thought I
would let everyone know.

Swollen Lymph Nodes And Nipple Posted: 11-03-07 14:12pm
You need to go see a breast doctor... I
know most men feel uncomforable doing
that. I worked in a breast clinic for 2
years and saw many men with that problem.
Men get mammograms and ultrasounds. I
would go to the doctor and get it checked
out. Could be nothing... but something is
causing your nodes to swell. Don't over
look this problem... I hope all is well.
Did you ever receive a diagnosis for this?
I have had almost the exact same problem.
First a swollen lymph node in my right
armpit, then that disappeared and
re-appeared in my left. 4-5 days later it
was in my nipple, and now it is growing.
Thanks

Swollen lymph nodes can be nothing but it
always a good policy to go check with a
doctor. Better safe than sorry.

You should go see your doctor. We also got
a new hot tub and got swollen armpits then
nipples a couple of days later and went to
the doctor and diagnosed with an infection
similar to staph infection. It is from
bacteria in the hot tub... make sure your
hot tub is chlorinated correctly.
