Suggest Treatment For Lump In The Armpit

default
Posted on Tue, 7 Jul 2015
Question: I have a lump in my armpit. I am.33 years old. Last year I had a reaction to deodorant and found myself scrating my armpit raw. Over time I had a bump there when I would squeeze it bloody puss would come out. I have the lumo again but its a little harder and nothing is coming out if it. No lumps in my breast. What could it be?

Brief Answer:
Get the lump excised.

Detailed Answer:
Hi.
Thanks for your query and an elucidate history.
The Hard lump looks to be a sebaceous cyst or an organized abscess.

The best treatment for such a lump is to get an opinion of a General Surgeon and get the lump excised for 2 reasons:
1. You get the most proper treatment by getting rid of the lump.
2. You get the proper diagnosis that nothing was serious.

I hope this answers your query and gives you the right direction to get a cure.
