My left armpit looks and feels swollen and is painful although I can't feel any lumps. When my arms are by my side it feels "scratchy". At the start of the year I had swollen lymph nodes in my neck and I felt the armpit was a bit swollen then too, although that went away. The neck glands were examined with a scope and ultrasound at hospital in June and were deemed as reactive. I have a deviated septum and have sinusitis practically all the time so I think that causes the neck gland swelling. I had a recent chest x-ray for something else and that was clear. My mammogram isn't due until next year.
Has anyone else experienced a swollen armpit with pain? I'm wondering if it's possibly connected to the lymph node swelling in my neck as it's the same side. I'm not looking for anyone to diagnose me, just wondering if anyone's experienced similar.
Thank you for reading.
