Does Painful Lumps Under The Arms During Pregnancy Need Medical Attention?

hello Doctor. I am 17 weeks pregnant and from about 3 months ago i have noticed sore lumps under both my armpits, there are a number of them under the left armpit but two under the right armpit. My gynae touched them ann i screamed and she suggested that i go to a surgeon. I have not yet made the appointment as i am busy but when i touch them now they are less painful. Should i still see the surgeon?

Hi,Dear Good Evening and thanks for the query to HCM.
I studied your query and understood your health concerns.
In my opinion the multiple armpit painful lumps are due to the boil -infected hair follicle.
To avoid any further septic complications from it -I would advise you to consult a ER Surgeon ASAP.
And hence they need to to be attended medically.
Hope this would help in planning treatment with yuou Doctor.
Hope this would resolve your query.
Welcome for any further query in this regard.
Plz write a Good Review-without fail,as it would help other patients coming to HCM.
With Regards.
