I have a small lump under my armpit which gets bigger and painful before my period. I do have very painful breasts premenstruation anyway but this lump does not completly disappear. It feels like a thickened area that i seem to rub onto my rib! Have seen gp who says to go back when it is at its' worst..even tho she felt it now.
Hi, dear I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. Slight tenderness and fullness in breast is common at time of menstruation. If you feel lump in axillary region or breast then it can be fibroadenosis. You should go for mammography once. It will give you exact idea whether you have lump or not. Then you should take treatment accordingly. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
