Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You may have some abscess formation in axillary lymphnode. It can be due to acute infection or tuberculosis. You should go for fine needle aspiration cytology of that lump. If needed go for culture and sensitivity test of that pus. It will give you exact diagnosis.
Then you should take treatment accordingly. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
