My mom tried doing a chemical peel at home because her friends recommended it, and now she's ended up with some serious burns on her skin, leaving dark patches. We're really worried about how to fix this, especially since we can't find any doctors nearby due to the lockdown. Can you tell us what we should do?

I've noticed a small lump in my armpit, and it's swollen and hurts a bit when I move my arm. Should I be worried about this?
It sounds like you may have a swollen lymph node in your armpit, which can be caused by various reasons such as infection or inflammation. To help reduce the swelling and pain, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen. Additionally, you can apply a warm compress to the area for 10-15 minutes a few times a day. If the swelling and pain persist or worsen, it's important to consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and treatment.
