Thank you for using healthcaremagic. The lump in your armpit could be a swollen lymph node which could mostly be due to an infection. It is adviceable for you to do a blood test to rule out any infection and further get an FNAC (fine needle aspiration cytology) procedure to confirm the diagnosis. Wish you a happy health!
