Hi,Dear ,Thanks for the query to My HCM clinic.
I studied your query and understood your concerns.
In my opinion-you suffer from-Thrombophlebitis or lymphangitis secondary to Lump in the armpit- which is mostly Chroni-boil in the armpit with infective origin.
Treatment-
a-Tb NSAIDs x 5 days
b-Antibiotics-to continue
c-Tb Serropeptidase-to reduce inflammatory reaction to infective cause.
d-Cold compresses with ice packs.
This would take care of the acute stage of the Thrombophlebitis -caused by the inflicting infective inflammation around the boil in the armpit.
e-Excision of the chronic boil - would resolve you from armpit lump.
Hope this would resolve the issue and would help you to plan treatment.
Wellcome for further queries in this regard.
Good Night.
