What Causes Swelling In Armpit After Pneumonia?

My arm is sore where my armpit is toward the back
It has been getting gradually worse for the past week and a half
it looks a little swollen.
I had pneumonia about 2 months ago and was wondering if this could be causing the issue or if I should go see a doctor and get properly checked
Thanks
