Hello Dr Rynne,
I've been experiencing moderate to severe itchiness in my right areola. It's persisted for the past 3 weeks, with little relief to the point where the sensitive skin chaffs and bleeds. Now the itch has subsided as of late last week, but yesterday night I noticed my right armpit was slightly puffier than usual (no redness) with a slight twinge of tenderness to the touch; and today, it's still the same size with no color change, but now it has a dull pain when touched and has sensitive tenderness when given a slight poke. Could it be a lymph node/breast cancer issue? What do you think it is, and what should be my next plan of action? please reply at YYYY@YYYY
