Patient's question:
I suddenly have a bean-sized lump under my right armpit. Usually, I don't feel it, but it hurts a bit when I touch it. What kind of illness could it be? Is it serious?Doctor's answer:
Consider lymphadenitis. Pinch and move it with your fingers. If it moves well and is not adhered to the surrounding skin or muscles, it is also lymphadenitis. It is not lymph tuberculosis, nor the serious diseases like cancer or tumors that you worry about, and there is no need for various instrumental examinations. Use traditional Chinese medicine pills that promote blood circulation, resolve stagnation, detoxify, and reduce swelling to treat the lumps, bumps, and inflammation. If you find the right treatment, it will be easy to get well.
