Lump In My Armpit
Posted: 11-09-04 03:18am

I am a male aged 25 yrs having a moderate lifestyle, I do not smoke neither do I indulge in drinking. I do practice some light exercise in the morning like pushups and pullup stretch ;since past 2 months I have been observing frequent recurring of painful knots about the size of a pea in my right armpit which tend to last for 3-4 days and then disappear.
I had experienced such knots for the first time about 2 months back , it had then ocuured in both my armpits almost simulataneously, but now since then it has been recurring in my right armpit alone. When it had occured for the first time my general physician explained me that pullups
could have been the underlying cause for this, but according to me I have been practicing pullups since past 9 yrs and never had experienced such a frequent problem. My problem annoys me a lot ,i would highly appreciate if someone who could come forward and help to provide a reasonable answer to my problem.
Thank you.

Armpit Bumps

I have the same problem. One started under my left arm, started to go away then two small ones started under my right arm. A nurse told me too much caffeine could be the cause but not sure.

Lumps In My Armpit
Posted: 01-03-06 15:50pm

I've been having lumps under both of my armpits. They get to the point to where I can barely lift my arms and move them. I went and got a mamogram done & it came back normal,no signs of cancer, but for some reason they just keep coming back...If anyone could help me or make any suggestions, i'd really appreciate it.

Well my mother gets those all the time and they are painful to her. Her do says it is from using scented deoderants.. The stuff clogs your pores, and hair follicles, and creates a fester under the skin.

Lumps Under the Armpit
Posted: 03-11-06 16:54pm

Hi,

i had a mammogram recently for the same thing which came up all clear. I have recently found though that this is possibly a case of blocked lymph nodes. Http://en.Wikipedia.Org /wiki/lymph_node. That's the wiki info on what lymph nodes are. I had extreme pain under my left pit and the who area was very fleshy and swollen. I went to a bowtech practitioner who using the bowen technique stimulated my body to perform lymph drainage within 2 sessions. The area is still puffy but a lot less painful and the lumps are gone. Manual lymph drainage is the proper way to address this.

Why does this happen...The lymph system is a waste removal circulatory system but unlike it's wealthier cousin which has a pump called the heart, it relies entirely on gravity. When ones diet becomes poor moreover when one does less exercise/moving about (my job is such that i've been working at home for the last 6 months) then the body just becomes, for want of a better word, stagnant and all the bad stuff just settles where it is. Bouncing on those mini tramolines is excellent for getting stuff moving again and they are reasonably cheap.

Just my input

My best friend got similar problem underarm on the right... Her physician says no sign of cancer, the nodule is soft. She keeps doing diagnosis every 6 months, she also finds tiny swollen in other area.. High protein, tiredness & work pressure could cause these nodule occur. When she moved her right arm up and backward, painful. I worry about her too. We have been discuss and searching through the net.
We find a chinese medi called 'body builder' from a singapore company. We bought 2 treatments over the net and friend says doing ok so far. She feels like the nodule underarm size getting smaller now and much soft. I am happy to hear that effect and perhaps let you if that works on you! Surf www.Health-guard.Net. We asked the consultant pretty long time so to make such try...At least less side effects compared to chemical/presciption drugs.

hey...

i just went to see my doctor because i have three bumps under my arm.

I found out that I have Hidradentis Suppurativa .....

Its rare, but its described as pea sized "lumps" that are hard , can be very tendar and red.

they do get worse over time but you can clear them up with antibiotics but they can return in other places. so the best way to et them removed in that spot and not have them show up there again is to have surgery to remove them,..... hope that answers some questions... it did mine.
