Lumps under armpit

Hey there

I am 20 years old. When I was 18 I got a lump under my arm pit that was said to be a swollen lymph node two years on it is still there. However now Ive got another lump as well just a bit further down and its made my left arm weaker then usual. It hurt when any sort of pressure is applied. However the other one just dont hurt just is apparent.

Is this anything to worry about?

Thanks

Hi,
Lymph nodes become enlarged for several reasons ... one is due to an infection somewhere in the body and it's not necessarily an indication of breast cancer..A visit to your Physician is advisable to make sure that there isn't an underlying problem.
Best wishes...
