they’ve seen a 1cm lump in arm pit

Hi everyone I've previously had lymphoma cancer and now they've seen this 1cm lump in the arm pit I have not been well with bad ear pain and throat pain which they did a swab yesterday and think the lump is due to the infection... but really can a lump come up in the arm pit due to ear and throat infection ... also I'm hopeful as if the cancer is back i will have a second top up 

  • Hello Emma75666

    I'm sorry to hear that you've been unwell recently and that it's resulted in finding a lump which has caused a scare. I always think that our body's work in the most amazing but also the most mysterious of ways sometimes. I'd try not to worry too much at the moment. Hopefully the results won't take long to come back and the Dr will be able to give you some reassurance about things. 

    If you'd like to have a chat with one of our nurses about things then you're most welcome to give them a call. They're available Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm on 0808 800 4040. 

    Best wishes,
