Male - Lump in Armpit

Hi, Had a lump in my for about 8 days in my armpit which is like the size of a marble and very knobbly (has been getting bigger). Saw the Doctor yesterday and he said he wasnt sure what its was.... said it was a lot of lumps clustered together, but didnt think it was anything to worry about. (so he says)  But the booked me an urgent appointment for blood work in Friday. Do you think I should be concerned? Did the Doctor say its probably nothing to worry about, just to keep me from worrrying?  (36 year old male)

  • Hello happycamper2022

    I'm sorry to hear that you've had some health concerns recently. It's good to hear that you've already seen the GP and that they're following this up with some further tests. Hopefully you won't have to wait too long for the results. 

    If you're still feeling anxious about things and would like to speak with one of our nurses you're welcome to call them on 0808 800 4040, Monday to Friday 9 am to 5 pm. I'm sure they will be happy to offer any support and reassurance that they can. 

    I hope that things settle for you soon. 

    Best wishes,
