How To Treat Small,pea-sized Lump Under Left Armpit With Discomfort In Shoulder,neck And Chest Tightness?
I have a small, pea-sized lump under my left armpit. It isn t painful really but it moves when I touch it. I am also experiencing some discomfort in my shoulder and neck and some chest tightness. Could this be a pinched nerve? I am very concerned that it is something worse. I am a 22-year old female. Thank you!

Pea sized lump is called lymphnode and if it is normal and present since long time then it is not a point of tension. If it is increasing in size or causing you pain then you can show to general surgeons.
For neck problem i would suggest you to show it to orthopaedic surgeon and get your cervical spine x ray done.If it shows any cervical spondylitis then you can get treatment accordingly.
