Suggest Remedy For Lumps In Armpit
I have this lump in the middle of my armpit that itches. At first I thought it was and ingrown hair so I got a needle and opened it up looking for the ingrown hair but found nothing but a clear liquid that wouldn t go away. Over the next few day the lump went away but came back. It still itched so I assumed maybe there was an ingrown hair so I did the same thing again but got the same result. And this has been going on for well over a month. I typed my problem into google and got results saying it maybe a sign of breast cancer but I m to young to have to worry about that. So is this something I should be concerned about. It hasn t gone away

Hi,
From history it seems that you might be having sebaceous cyst and now with frequent piercing with needle you got infected cyst giving this problem.
Go for one oral antibiotic medicine course for 5 days.
If recurrence is there, consult surgeon and get removed with sac.
Oki and take care.
