Discomfort In The Armpit. Had Golfers Elbow. Taking Primrose Oil. Worried. Cancer?

Hi. A couple of years ago I went to dr and was told I had gilders elbow in my right elbow. I persevered and eventually it eased without the use of a steroid injection as was suggested by dr. Now I have a sensation in my right armpit. Can't say pain just discomfort. Is in outside of right breast too. Breasts are quite tender and right one is bigger than left. I am 53 and have a coil fitted ! Have not experienced going through change yet although had what I thought were hot flushes round Xmas but seemed to stop now. Have begun to take primrose oil which seems to ease tenderness a bit but odd sensation still very evident. Has definitely increased over the last year or so. Now mainly aware all the time. Things go through my head, lymph problems? Cancer of any sort? Usual worries. What do you think? Thanks for listening
