What Does A Tender Spot Below The Left Armpit Indicate?
On 12/4, I was feeling fine until about 8:30pm. As I began to not feel well, I took my temperature and had a fever of 101. I also noticed that I had a spot just below my left armpit that was suddenly tender and red. I took ibuprofrin be fore bed, and woke up fever free. However, that morning I noticed a red raised spot on my pelvis that was about the size of a dime and tender/ itchy. THroughout the day, I continued to feel like I had a fever (chills, crawling skin, headache), but did not. This morning when I woke up, I had a second similar spot on my pelvis. A third has now appeared, as well as a similar spot just below my right armpit. THoughts?

Hi and welcome to HCM!
Thanks for your questions.
High grade fever with spreading red spots indicates infection; mostly viral. Consult your family doctor and get routine blood and urine tests done.
Hope this helps.
Take care
