I'm a bit worried because I've had a dry cough for about a week, and now the right side of my back is swollen. I went to the doctor, and she said the swelling is from the cough and it's nothing serious. The swelling has gone down, but I'm still feeling a little pain around my right rib area. Should I be concerned about this lingering pain? Could it be something more than just from the cough?

I'm feeling a bit worried about a lump I found in my armpit. Should I go see a specialist or would a general medicine doctor be a better choice? I'd really appreciate any advice as soon as possible.
You should consult a General Surgeon for evaluation and management of armpit lumps. They are specialized in diagnosing and treating conditions related to lumps and bumps in the body. If necessary, they may refer you to an Oncologist for further evaluation.
