sore breast near armpit

because breast pain isnt normally in ur armpit because the lymph nodes are usually only on the edge of the armpit and if it was a breast related problem that was giving u armpit pain then ur lymph nodes would probably be swollen. has ur actual breast been hurting? if it has regularly, then go back to the docs and say your still worried. but at ur age breasts may get more tender at certain times of the month etc, usually before periods. it may be muscular, certain sports can cause muscular pain.

Hi i'm 21 years old overweight woman. I've been having a lump in my right armpit and it really hurts. The first time i found it was months ago and that time it burst and kinda gone but sometimes it would appear again in my armpit (but not on the same spot), sometimes in my left armpit. I've been using ichthyol cream and doesn't seem to make it all gone. as for my breasts, I never felt any pain on my breast or find a lump. should i be worried? thankyou so much.

just wanted an opinion, well this is my 3rd pregnancy so i know sore bbs are the norm but my right breast is very sore on the side near my armpit deep in my breast very sore when i first get up in morning, ok question?

I often get sore armpits when I am down with a bad cold. But due to the risk of cancer, family history, and your age, I think a check for breast cancer if def needed! Every state has programs set up for those whose can't afford help. I know it is difficult to get info on them, and then to go through all the paperwork (I HATE it), call your local health services dept (if you are in the US), and tell them your story, see if they can help.

A breast self-examination should always include the armpit because breast cancer can enlarge the armpit lymph nodes even when the breast itself seems perfectly normal. ref:http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/003099.htm So you need to go and have it examined at the earliest.

I had aspiration 3 weeks ago, the cyst is gone (hopefully) but my breast is sore and I feel pain near my chest area. I had my heart checked up but nothing wrong there. Any clues?

Around the arm pit can contain breast tissue, lymph nodes, as well as other tissues. I would strongly suggest seeing a doctor. It could be nothing more than a cyst, a fat or fluid filled lump. And if she's been ill it could possibly be a swollen lymph node. However, breast tissue can sometimes be found near the arm pit, so it's theoretically possible that it could be related to that. What does the lump feel like? Is it sore at all? Does it move freely?

I had not been sick, nor did I have any signs of an infection anywhere. I also had some tenderness in the breast near the armpit. My doctor ordered a left breast ultrasound, which I had 10 days later. After doing the scan, the radiologist wanted her to do the other armpit. To my surprise, I had several enlarged nodes there as well. The radiologist came in and asked me about my last mammogram, which was done in 2-10, and was normal. She wanted to see that report and I signed a release.

Hello-- I'm 24 years old and am in generally in good health. A little over a year ago, I found some slightly enlarged lymph nodes under my right armpit, simultaneous with side pain and some tooth infections (all seemingly unrelated). I sort of freaked out and called my doctor, who said she could barely feel the nodes, and that because they were so small and moveable they were probably nothing.

I am a 27 year old female who is not currently sexually active and I do not have any STD's. (I am screened often). This morning I woke up feeling some tenderness on the outer 'lips' of my vagina. I checked and there is a swollen, tender, lump. It is not a sore, there is not discharge from it or me. It is under the skin and does not have a 'head' on it. It isn't terribly painful but it is sore. I can push it and it moves around under the skin.

Anyone else have sore breasts & sometimes dull ache from breast to armpit; very uncomfortable at times. What have you done to help?

I did however forget to mention that I felt a lump in my armpit except it is closer to my breast. My breast size has really changed a lot. The last time I had a mommo was about 9 months ago.. The said there were some clusters, but not to worry about them. Would this still be part of the Lymph Node?

Is the 3 o'clock position near the armpit? Is it the same for both the left and right? Thank you.

For the past couple of weeks ive been very tired all the time and its been sore underneath my right armpit on the side of my breast, then recently i woke up with bruising on my right breast with no explanation how it got there, theres been some pain in my breast mostly around the nipple area where the bruising is. I haven't found any lumps.

I have had this wierd circular lump in my armpit for about six months now. It never bothered me before but has recently started to be rather painful. I have also had pain on the side of my breast that is nearest the armpit and my hand has been very shaky. I don't know if any of these are combined in anyway but what could this be?

Now, I have a question, everytime I had my burp, my nerve on upper of my left armpit was sore. Do you have any idea what was the caused about?

My right breast only feels like it has extremely thickened - at first it was just the area right under the armpit and now it is the whole right side of my breast from the armpit to the nipple. It feels almost like a long rope-like lump under the skin - this is new in the last six months. I also have just one small palpable mass way up near the armpit that is only 9mm and was found to be benign a few years ago and is still there, but it's not a cyst or fibroadenoma.
