How To Treat A Painful Lump In The Armpit?
I have a lump on a stretch mark in my armpit. It has happened before and does not look like a pimple (judging from its size and appearance). I m just curious as to what it is. It s tender and painful to the touch. Also, it is about twice the size of an average pimple.

Hi,
From history it seems to be enlarged lymph node in axilla.
It shows that there might be having some infection in your upper arm or some infection in near by area.
If require go for one antibiotic medicine course for 3-5 days.
Ok and take care.
