Hi,
It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation of your right axillary lymphadenopathy. While lymph node enlargement can sometimes be a benign condition, it can also be a sign of an underlying infection, inflammation, or cancer. Your healthcare provider may recommend further testing, such as a biopsy, imaging studies, or blood tests, to determine the underlying cause.
In the meantime, you can try some home remedies to help relieve any discomfort you may be experiencing, such as:
- Applying a warm compress to the affected area for 10-15 minutes, several times a day
- Taking over-the-counter pain relievers, such as acetaminophen or ibuprofen, as directed
- Avoiding tight-fitting clothing or jewelry that may irritate the affected area
- Practicing good hygiene, such as washing your hands frequently and avoiding touching the affected area to prevent infection
However, it is important to remember that these remedies are not a substitute for medical treatment and should be used in conjunction with medical advice from your healthcare provider.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Priyanka, General & Family Physician
