[|Human|] Hi i have a small lump in armpit just below hair line. I had this about 1 year ago and it seeped after about 6 months and smelled of deodeorant so i didn t think much of it. I have it again now and is causing pain below it and around the general area left of left breast and in shoulder. What could this be?
[|AI|]  Hello and welcome to Chat Doctor, Lump in the armpit is most commonly due to lymph node enlargement. A lump smelling of deodorant can be co-incidental. Clinical assessment of the lump is required to know the exact nature of the swelling. Clinical assessment has to be followed by aspiration cytology of the lesion. In aspiration cytology, cells are aspirated with a needle, spread on a slide and stained with Gains stain. The stained cells are studied microscopically to know the nature and character of the lesion. Treatment can be planned after diagnosis is made. Thanks and take care Chat Doctor.
