Swelling In The Neck. Have Enlarged Lymph Node, Lump In The Armpit. Worried

Hi ,
I am 40 yrs old male . 4 months back I had a swelling at side of my neck . The doctor has gone for certain tests like CBC , ESR , chest xray , USG of whole abdomen and also advised USG guided FNAC which cant be performed because of small size of lymph node swelling . All reports were fine and within range . He gave some antibiotic which results in reducing size but the swelling still exists. Now one week back i have noticed a very small lump at the lower end of my right armpit along with some rashes . I dont have any weekness , fever , night sweat or any other abnormality. Pls advise

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The lump in the armpit that you have is also likely to be a swollen lymph node. The cause of such lymphadenopathy needs to be detected after a specific examination like FNAC.
