324372 tn?1222820202 Hello! I was wondering if any of you had trouble in your pregnancy with swollen glands under your arms? I'm 37 weeks along, and I have a lump under one arm, center of my armpit that is pretty small, and tender to touch. I've had it for awhile and keep forgetting to tell the doctor about it since it really doesn't hurt unless you touch it. I figured it was a sweat gland and would go away, but it hasn't so far.
Avatar n tn they dont pain and hurt at all, they are only found under your jaw and armpit and groin area. if they are swellling, they are easily felt and seen, so dont search for them. i had the same fears of my nodes, i found one under my armpit, was like 2-3 cms big and like a hill. imagine how i felt when i saw it, i ran to my doctor and i had ultra sound for it, it was a MUSCLE that was broken with me long time ago when i was practicing. so dont look for them.
Avatar f tn Swollen glands are quite common depending on where the infection is. yes, your glands under your arm could get swollen if your bronchial tubes are affected. Are you taking antibiotics for the sinus infection? If not, I suggest you see a doctor. Swollen glands are only a symptom, not a disease. Wishing you the best.
Avatar f tn Sebaceous cyst is a closed sac or cyst that fills with a fatty white, semi-solid material called sebum produced by sebaceous glands of the epidermis. It is usually painless but can become painful if infected. Boils are caused by infection of the hair follicle be staph aureus. Treatment includes antibiotics. To confirm the diagnosis please get an evaluation and maybe a FNAC skin done by a dermatologist.
Avatar m tn While Hepatitis A vaccine can cause blisters, fever and swollen glands in the armpit, neck or groin. Meningitis vaccine can also cause fever, pain, weakness and swollen glands in armpit, groin. Some side effects which occur usually do not need medical attention. They are self-limiting and can go away on their own. It is difficult to confirm whether it had occurred due to the vaccine or any other cause.
484267 tn?1239037973 I have also experienced pain in the glands under the chin on each side of the neck at the same time I had the light pain in the armpit, I am so glad I started reading this forum, I was going through misery with muscle aches and cramps, I read that some Hashi's took Vitamin D and Magnesium, I started taking them three days ago and I have marked improvement already, I still have the stiff and sore neck but it is not as bad as it was. Thanks Again!
Avatar m tn t remember exactly. it is close to where the arm joines the chest but in the armpit. it is not painful, maybe when i touch it too much it becomes sensitive. i am 19 weeks pregnant as well. went to gp who felt it and said it is probably cyst asked me to come back in 1 month if it grows bigger. but i am still worried, could it be cancer? it is close to the surface of the skin, but there is nothing on the skin surface.
Avatar m tn I have a small colorless mold like under my armpit. It feels like when you get the lump from ear peircing. It hasnt grow . I have it for about 10 years.
Avatar n tn I have had swelling under my armpit in a lump that is sometime the size of a almond up to a ping-pong balls size. It started about 4 weeks ago, it was just in one side and my Dr said it was a swollen lymph gland and gave me antibiotics. It slowly went away. I happened again 2 weeks later, same armpit slightly higher. Then 2 days ago I noticed a swollen lump in my labia majora. I went to the Dr who sent me to Emergancy.
Avatar m tn 2) Given I had the swollen glands pain/sensation 10 days prior to the 33 day testing, does that rule this out as a symptom? 3) Are there any other blood borne nasties that you would have me tested for?
Avatar n tn I have a question about swollen lymphs in the armpit. If I put left hand over my right peck and leave my right arm down and push my left hand into my right armpit I can feel a ball of some sort. It doesn't hurt at all. I am worried that it is a swollen gland caused by HIV. Does this sound like a swollen lymph? I dont know where to find them.
Avatar m tn My symptoms scare me, especially generalized lymphadenopathy, the swollen nodes in my parotid (in front and below my ear), the swollen submandibular glands, the ulcers in my throat, the ongoing pain in my legs. Would you find any explanation for all these lasting symptoms? Everything started 2 weeks after the unprotected encounter and all the symptoms (which got worse) point out to HIV. Please, Teak, take the time to assess the whole situation.
Avatar f tn u had protected sex so no risk..
Avatar n tn I also fingered her for about a minute or two, I had no cuts on my finger. 3 weeks later I got sore throat, slightly swollen lymph glands in my neck and armpits. I also had short sharp pains in my breast muscles and thighs. Not a real fever, just slightly raised temperature. I used antibiotics and the symptoms disappeared after about 10 days. I continued to have a tingling feeling in the back of my knees, on and off until last week.
Avatar m tn IF IT WAS DUE TO EARLY HIV, SHOULD I HAVE FELT THE LYMPH GLANDS THE SAME DAY AS THE SORE THOAT? DO ALL THE GLANDS SWELL AT THE SAME TIME ? IS PULSING FELT AT THE SPOT WHERE THE GLAND WILL SWELL? i am going to the doctor to get tested tomorrow. it has been a month since the last time we had sex. Please help, anybody.
Avatar n tn Hidradenitis suppurativa is a chronic disease that causes inflammation of the large specialized sweat glands or the apocrine glands that are found mainly in the armpits. It is still not clear why the apocrine sweat glands are affected but it can be due to mechanical blockage which could lead to infection. Hidradenitis suppurativa can be itchy, but is usually painful, and the lumps hurt if they are pressed. As time goes by, more and more scarring appears.
Avatar m tn im 15 and recently a small bump under my armpit has come up, i think it is under the skin, what should i do? what could it be?, it doesnt really bother me This discussion is related to <a href='/posts/show/239698'>Bump under armpit</a>.
Avatar m tn - Swollen armpit glands (not individual nodes, but a general swollen feeling) for 4 weeks, starting 23 days post exposure. Is this the normal timeline for acture HIV symptoms, and is this a common one? - Could this be related to another STD anyones aware of? - Does the Oraquick (gum swab) test provide the 80-85% accuracy at 4 weeks some people seem to be claiming, or does this figure only apply to blood tests?
Avatar f tn Is there a lump or just pain? Is it swollen? It could be a swollen lymph node or just pains from your milk glands. Your breast and armpit area will be sensitive sometimes!
Avatar n tn Not ignoring the feeling of discomfort under my arm he has recommeded still going for the ultrasound next week but there are no lumps or bumps there now and the swollen lymph glands have gone down. The doc has given me anti inflammatory painkillers and recommended physio to treat the trapped nerve.
Avatar n tn I have a lump in the bottom half of my armpit. It is not painful but it is visible to the eye. I also have had a gland in my throat that is slightly enlarged but not super swollen. It hurts when I yawn. It has been there for seven weeks. The armpit started this week. Also I have lump in my belly on the middle left. It feels like a ball and is tender.
Avatar f tn 5 cm in diameter 1 day ago - a lymph node in my right armpit is tender and slightly swollen and very painful, peasized today - I looked on the inside of my mouth and found that my left tonsil is very swollen. A lymph node under my left jaw is also very slightly swollen but tender to the touch. Note: In the past week I have had a small cut on a finger on left hand. Trivially small. I have also experienced NO other symptoms. No nightsweats, no fever, no fatigue, no joint pain, no sore throat.
Avatar n tn 31 days later I had several red swollen lumps under each armpit. They were red and tender for two days then went hard and disappeared within the follwoing three days. There was no pus or heads to the lumps. They felt just beneath the skin. I have had absolutely no other symptoms except worry. I often wear a wetsuit and would have a wetsuit rash under both arms which i had a few days prior. My doctor said the lumps were swollen sebaceous glands and not lymph nodes.
