What Causes A Lump In My Armpit?

I'm about 6ft 2", i'm 75kg and i'm almost 20.
i've been feeling like my heads beens suffocated, head spinning alot, increased heart beat, both ears feel blocked all the time & they seem to be getting worse. & i just generally feel out of it.
when i had blood tests a few weeks ago everything came back good.
just had high blood pressure.
but i've been thinking about the suffocating feeling in my head & i'm wondering if maybe i'm developing a tumor or something like that, ??

also, i've got a lump under my right armpit, which about twice a week sends shooting pains down my arm and across my chest.? what is that?

welcome to Health care magic.
1.Generally the lumps in the arm pits are carbuncle / furuncles.
2.They are generally with pain and pus discharge.
3.if you don't have pain and any recent fever. It could be lipomas ( fat lumps)
4.To confirm you need to get an appointment and let your doctor examine and may indicate ultrasound scan.
5.ultrasound scan done to know where it is arising from and what it consists of and how it involving adjacent anatomical structures.
Anything to ask ? do not hesitate. Thank you.
