very eglongated lymph node in arm pit

[danaj336]

I've had previous breast issues just cysts removed and mri of left several years ago. Today had maamo and breast ultrasound. Dr came and told me I had very eglongated lymph node on inside of right arm pit. He asked if I had ever had any trauma to that area and I told him no. He said he would give my gyn dr the results and go from there. What does that mean?

A lot will depend on how long this lymph node has been enlarged. Often when a node does enlarge for some reason it may not return to a normal size. I would think that perhaps it will either be ignored (if it's been a long term condition) or investigated further if this is something quite new. Perhaps even a biopsy of the node may be done to determine the cause. Regards ....
