[|Human|] Hello there, I have just returned from a scuba diving holiday to Puerto Galera, Philippines with a diving group and whilst there I noticed a lump under my armpit and now there is a couple of them. The food was terrible and a couple of our friends got food poisoning, whilst diving I didn t exceed my no decompression times on any dive and always completed a 5min 5m safety stop after every dive. I am wondering if it s an infection rather than a symptom of a DCI?
[|AI|]  HI, Thanks for the query to Chat Doctor. Treatment for bump under armpit-after scuba diving -is due to the armpit boil/ fur uncle with spread to nearby hair follicles / by allergy / or by skin spread of infection. Treatment -would be Antibiotics / Anti-inflammatory from ER doctor. If not referral to Dermatologist would resolve the issue. Hope this would help you to plan treatment with ER doctor.
