Hi, If I were your treating Doctor for this case of an axillary lump, I would come up with only one and one possibility that is a hematoma; Nothing to worry about this and try not to get infected there! However, it could be a neurofibroma, some infection or hemangioma like lesion also! Press some ice; might get some relief!
I suggest you to go for an FNAC test of the lump for confirmation and to relieve your concerns!
Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions.
