What Causes Growth Of Painful Lump Under The Armpit During Periods?
I m on my period and I have a small noticeable painful lump under my armpit? Ive had one before but I m not sure if I was on my period then, but it just went away so it didn t concern me. Is this duentry to my hormones? Or do I need to get it checked out? Kelly.
It is quite common and is due to cyclical hormonal changes during periods. As a first line management you can take drugs like mefenemic acid for pain relief.
Hope I have answered your queries. Let me know if I can assist you further.
