I have a lump in armpit since last ten years and i am not sure what it is not sure which doctor to go to? From internet i got to know that it can be cancerous or due to infection or extension of breast tissue. Not sure what is it but want to get rid of it safely
Hi, dear I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You have lump in axilla. It can be lipoma, benign cyst or some enlarged lymphnode due to reactive hyperplasia, tuberculosis or lymphoma. You should consult general surgeon for that. If needed go for fine needle aspiration cytology or biopsy of that lump. It will give you exact diagnosis. Then you should take treatment accordingly. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
