Suggest Treatment For Lumps Under The Armpits

MY daughter has found five lumps under her armpits right where you shave and they are hard and the size of marbles. She just had a checkup last week and they said she was ok. She has had ovarian cancer and uterus cancer and lymp nodes, they were all removed about five years ago. But, she has been fine since then. Is this anything we should be conerned about? She did talke to a doctor that

said it is probably a cyst. But, she kind of dismissed it. can we get a free answer or do we have to pay for this?

Hi,Dear,Good Morning.Thanks for the query to my HCM online- clinic .I studied your query in-depth.
-In my opinion your armpit lumps are not cancerous and have no relation to the Cervical and Uterine Cancers of your daughter.
-Cause of the Lumps-These armpit lumps-are the-Chronic furuncles with Cystic Changes with infected fluid in it-due to the infection -post-shaving of the armpit and the use of sprays and improper armpit hygien.
-Treatment -a-Consult A ER Surgeon.
b-Antibiotics for 5 days, c-With NSAIDs would regress these lumps.If need be -these chronic furuncle-abscesses need to be drained properly-which is a remote possibility.
-Alerts/ Warning for you-Plz consult your ER-Surgeon doctor and take treatment ASAP-is the Advise from me.
-Hope this would resolve your worry-some query.Wellcome again to HCM .Have a good day.
