Question

I'm a bit worried because I've had a pea-sized lump in my left armpit for about 6 weeks now. It's not painful or anything, but it hasn't gone away on its own. Could this be some kind of infection or something else? What should I do?

While many lumps under the armpit are harmless and related to lymph nodes or benign growths like cysts or lipomas, it's always best to get it checked by a doctor, especially if it's persistent. Your doctor will be able to provide a diagnosis based on your medical history, physical examination, and possibly imaging tests.
