Lump Under Armpit =/

Im 16 and i found a lump under my armpit, under the skin about 4 months ago, it dissapears and reappears it usually appears a week before my period, but can appear at anytime. The other day i noticed a bulge on top of the skin that sticks out, it is about 3cm away from the actual lump, i also sweat alot, what could this be?

To be on the safe side, I would have it checked, it may be nothing, but, with some of the symptoms you described, I would definitely have it looked at.

Dude! That doesn't sound like something you want to be asking random unqualified people! Go to the DOCTORS, like now! It could be something simple like an ingrown hair... or could be related to your sweat glands... BUT it could also be something a bit more serious that they can treat now? Not to freak you out, but you can never me too cautious with these things. Goodluck!
