Hi, dear.
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You may have some enlarged axillary lymphnode or soft tissue tumor like lipoma. Enlarged lymphnode may be due to reactive lymphoid hyperplasia or due to tuberculosis. So you should go for fine needle aspiration cytology. Then you should take treatment according to your diagnosis.
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.
