A soft bump under the armpit may be ectopic breast tissue or a lipoma. It‚Äôs usually harmless, but an ultrasound can confirm the diagnosis.

I'm really worried about my wife's health. She's currently 25 weeks pregnant, and we recently did a CBC test where the ESR level came back high at 90mm. Is this normal, or should we be concerned? Could this be a problem for the baby? I really need some advice on this.
