3 years ago when pregnant I developed a
lump under my armpit, the doctor said it
was nothing and it went away I get them
every now and then. I just noticed I have
another one, it is about the size of a
pecan and it is a bit painful. Is this
normal or is it something i should be
concerned about?

Is only one armpit affected?
Do you usually get lumps on the same
spot?
What does the skin of the lump look like?

Well this was the first time it came upon
the other armpit and yes it is always in
the same place.

You might want to go to the doctor again
and tell them your problem it might be
nothing but you can never know.

Thanks, I have an appointment to go to the
doctor because you are right it is better
to know and be wrong than to not know.

For how long the initial lump was
persistent?
Definitely, you should visit a doctor.
Always, remember that breast cancer can
enlarge the armpit lymph nodes even when
the breast itself seems perfectly normal.
Waiting for your post!
Best wishes!
