What Causes Swelling In The Armpit?
I have soft tissue swelling under my right arm pit. noticed three weeks ago. I visited the dr today and he ordered ultrasound which found nothing to suspect cancer. The swelling causes discomfort during the say when I am using my arm a lot. So I got no real diagnosis of what is causing it. Any suggestions?
