Hi.
As per your case history of hives and pain in armpit, my treatment advice is -
1. Throbbing pain in armpit and hives are not related. So don't worry.
2. Take an antihistamine medication like levocetrizine for hives.
3. Take a NSAID like ibuprofen for pain.
4. Lymphoma is a different condition and not related to hives. So don't worry about it.

If problem persists then consult a dermatologist.

Thanks.
