What Causes Tenderness On Raised Vein Near Bottom Of Right Armpit?

i just noticed a tender what seems to be raised vein near the bottom of my right armpit. it scares me because what ive been told about breast cancer being detected by finding a lump by your underarm. however, it isnt round but a couple inches long. i havent sustained any injury.

it needs to be examined, it may be infection of armpit hairs. without any swelling in the breast, it very uncommon to have axillary swelling. but better to consult your physician
