Hello

Please mention your age.

since when you have the lumps?

it seems that you have infection and abscess in that area.
lumps in the armpit indicates enlargement of the lymph nodes and sometimes it is a indication of certain conditions.

do you have fever also?

i would advice you to take an antibiotic and a painkiller for pain can be taken through prescription.

if the symptoms persist then you should visit a doctor.

Hope this answer helps.

Regards
Dr. Shesh
