I Kno Its Been Asked a Couple of Times But Armpit Lump Posted: 05-03-05 17:45pm
I know this has been asked a couple times
but my friend who is 17, has found a lump
under her arm at first it looked like a
spot but now it's a proper lump, and solid
feeling, and shes had it for a while. It
isn't painful or itchy but I was just
wondering if any one could give some
advice on what it may be. Shes gonna see
her doctor about it but I just wanted to
check whether anyone had any ideas?

Hi there! I am glad that your friend is
havibg the lump checked out, it is always
better to be safe then sorry. I am no
Dr. But it could be a cyst or a little
fatty tumor or a cancerous tumor. Cancer
tumors are not painful at first, that is
why it is good to do a self exam once a
month and report anything that you feel is
not right to your Dr. I sure hope your
friend is o.K.
Sincerely,
sandy
