What Does A Painful Lump In The Under Arm Indicate?
I have a few symptoms and think they are HIV related...
Ihave a lump under my arm that is slowly going away but it hurt for days, as well as a urinary track infection that doesnt go away, and these little night sweats... I usually go to the doctors but im not working an cant afford it here in the state of GA. There is no free check up and testing like in NY. Plus im scared they will tell me I have HIV. I feel I may have it, Im constantly having some type of infection going on with me body but i also always heal faster then most people my age. But constantly getting these infections. Im so nervous. Im 26.
