Sore breast tissue underarm

Common Questions and Answers about Sore breast tissue underarm

sore

Avatar n tn The most common reason they swell dring your cycle is because there is breast tissue in the area of your armpit and that tissue is what is effected by those hormonal changes. If they are sensative to the touch it is a good thing. That means they are doing what they are supposed to. A sign of a malignancy would more commonly not be tender to the touch and they would not come and go. Your axillary could even swell after you shave your armpits.
Avatar n tn i am a 23 year old female who has developed breast tenderness on/off for the past fe months as well as a slightly swollen and paifull right armpit- worried that i may have cancer- pls help!

Avatar n tn I have some kind of thickening lump between my right underarm and my right breast. It is fairly large and looks almost like a small breast next to my underarm and it has a round kind of dimpling on it about the size of a quarter. It is very uncomfortable at times and it aches when I wear certain types of clothing. I told my doctor and she checked it and sent me for a chest cat scan which came back negative (I assume a good thing). She advised me to see a surgeon since it bothers me.
Avatar f tn Is the sore still present along with the pain? My first thought was cysts or lymph tissue but the sore complicates things, along with your family history. I agree that you should be seen. Good luck! Also there are groups that help individuals pay for certain medical care, if you can't find any remember you're health is worth it.
Avatar f tn Just like everyone else on here I feel terrible about it. I am now about to be 38 and the left underarm breast tissue has greatly increased. I am going to see my OBGYN on the 11th of this month and plan to ask her about it and she what she says. However, I wanted to let everyone know that I actually have had a consultation before and the experience was terrible! That doctor told me some startling things!
455126 tn?1212432198 regarding sore left underarm, I had/have the exact same pain. Like you say - not really sore - just uncomfortable and always seems to be "there". I have a small nodule on the right lobe of my thyroid but FNA is scheduled for a few days from now. I thought it might be cardiac related but that has been eliminated as a possibility. Interestingly, just knowing that it isn't cardiac has had a significantly relieving impact.
Avatar f tn I was sent to do an ultrasound and a diagnostic mammogram. My breast tissue looked fine. The Dr who did my ultra sound showed me that my lymph nodes were fine. She also showed me that the lump looked to be fatty tissue. She thought it to be possibly edema, but she did not sound so sure it was. I go back in three months for a follow up visit. As a side note, about this time I was ten days in to going from levothyroxine to nature- throid. The bump was sore at that time.
Avatar n tn t directly in my armpit or anything. I think it was regular breast tissue that i probably aggravated by touching it wasy too much. What are your thoughts.
Avatar f tn After reading all 666 comments on this website under another post about underarm breast tissue, it appears as though healing honestly takes at least 6 months. I am starting physical therapy, per my breast surgeon, this coming Monday to restore mobility. What you are explaining all sounds totally normal to me, especially only 6 days out. I have propped my arms up/out with pillows to reduce all the chafing I was feeling (still do).
Avatar n tn My doctor stated I have increased breast tissue on that breast.
Avatar f tn If you have been diagnosed with fibrocystic Breast Condition you had to have had some lumps within the breast tissue. the + means that the breast is positive for some abnormality. If you had a clinical breast exam and the Dr. did feel all the lumps in both breasts perhaps he felt a difference between them. Ability to feel a difference from one lump to another comes with professional training and experience. As far as what questions to ask only you know what concerns you ....
451160 tn?1207707612 I have already posted my problem, but I had forgot to mention that the lump was excess breast & fat tissue. I am brand new to this sight.
Avatar f tn I haVE A 1.8CM BREAST TISSUE IN MY RIGHT ARMPIT, WHICH IS CAUSING DISCOMFORT. INCLUDING NERVE PAIN, MY SURGEON TELLS ME IT'S NOT RELATED TO THE DISCOMFORT IN MY ARMPIT. BUT I WAS EXPERIMENTING DISCOMFORT, BEFORE THE NERVE PAIN STARTED, WHICH IN TURN IS CAUDING NUMBNESS, TINGLING, SWELLING, MY PINKI FINGER & THE FINGER NEXT TO IT TO GO NUMB & CURL UNDER, MY ARM IS COLD A LOT OF THE TIME.
Avatar n tn m guessing you are referring to her chest rather than her breast since you stated that she had a mastectomy which is the complete removal of the breast tissue. Some bruising might be expected after surgery and the fact that a considerable amount of tissue is removed there will be abnormal looking areas on the chest wall. I'm sure some lymphnodes were also removed to test for cancer and those would have come from the underarm area.
Avatar f tn - PERFORMED BY A BREAST SURGEON HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. I HAVE ALWAYS TOLD BY MY GYNO AND PRIMARY DR THAT THE LUMP IS EXTRA BREAST TISSUE, NOTHING TO BE CONCERNED WITH UNLESS IT IS BOTHERSOME TO ME LIKE WHEN IT RUBS AGAINST MY BRA WHEN IT IS LARGER DURING MY MONTHLY CYCLE. THIS IS A LITTLE ANNOYANCE THAT I CAN LIVE WITH - I'D RATHER DO THIS THAN ELECTIVE SURGERY. BUT SEE YOUR DOCTOR JUST TO MAKE SURE. GOOD LUCK!!!!
Avatar n tn s nothing but if it were to be a lymph node or a breast lump it will need a biopsy time is important . if it is red and painful it could just be a a number of minor things but still needs checked, Deeper bumps don't mess with it either way time is important, keep track of things until you see the doctor which you should call today .Go in prepared see if you are running a temp, do you sweat at night ?are you loosing weight, Mark the lump ,has it grown? is it painful?
Avatar n tn I went back to my doctor with my concerns of these persisting symptoms,she examined breast and underarm, no lumps, no temp, she was not concerned, thought it was due to ill fitting bra - seems strange. She refered me to a breast specialist for follow thru . She did not ask about back injuries or even offer a chest x ray but I surpose the specialist will pick up if anything is wrong.
Avatar n tn should i be worried its real sore had it for awhile go for mammogram tomorrow but worried it runs in my family
529962 tn?1215213566 The treatment of DCIS is focused on removing all DCIS from the breast by surgically removing the involved area or the entire breast and preventing the development of more DCIS or invasive breast cancer in either breast. DCIS cells lack the biological capacity to metastasize, or spread elsewhere in the body, like cancer cells do. However, depending on the type of DCIS and how aggressive it is determines treatment options.
549575 tn?1214838616 There may be temporary unpleasant sensations, including numbness and a pinching or pulling feeling in the underarm area but this also resolves when the tissue heals. But with this increasing pain, it would be best to call your doctor for proper evaluation. Take care and keep us posted.
Avatar f tn I keep having non consistans right breast pain and then my underarm the right one. I do self-breast check and I don't think I feel anything and then I check my underarm and don't feel anything either. Should I Be worried??
