Rash On Chest And Arms. Lump In Armpit. Related Symptoms?
Hi the weather has been extremely hot recently and for the first time I can ever remember I have gotten a very bad heat rash across my chest on my arms. I am a 22 year old female and have been to very hot climates before and this has never happened to me so I wonder what is different? I also just felt a small lump in armpit today and I'm wondering could this be related? I would appreciate any help or advice at all. Thank you!

hello,
Thank you for consulting HCM.Lump in your arm pit indicates a lymphnode enlargement in you case.But mostly lymphnodes are enlarged due to infection present in our body.But in some patients with heat stroke will have enlarged lymphnodes.Consult your doctor for advice and examination.Drink more water and apply some sun milk after burn lotion,take some vitamin C.Thank you.
