Hi, im 16 and I had a small pea sized lump under my armpit, it has now gone, but now I have found another small lump on the neck in the throat area.. It is under the skin and painful to touch. I have also knowticed that I have had swolen glands over the past few days although I have no flu like symptoms.. I haven t been to see a doctor as I feel physically fine.. just wondering what is causing these lumps and whether it is potentially dangerous ? Thanks very much
Hi, Welcome to Chat Doctor. I studied your query. I understood Your concerns. Dear You seem to have 2 separate health issues in armpit and in throat/neck. Both are of infective origin. A swollen gland on this back Chat Doctor. I would treat such a case In My clinic-By giving an antibiotic treatment to evaluate its regression. If not regressed, I Would rule out Chronic JD(jugulo-diagastric) Lymphadenitis due to recurrent old throat infections. Other possibilities of NHL/HL Lymphoma need to be ruled out, with FNAC biopsy and by CT studies. I would hence advise you to Hope this reply would satisfy and would help you to plan treatment with the right consultant doctor. Contact with a Followup Premium question to ME.
