"Question In the past few days I have found a small pea-sized lump in my armpit.  Can I ignore it or should I have it checked out? Answer This is likely to be one of two things \u2013 an infected hair follicle or a lymph node.  Both should, in most circumstances just disappear over a few days (about a week, say). Is it sore or red?  Both infected follicles and glands can be sore and that is usually a sign that the body is fighting an infection. If it is red it is more likely to be a hair follicle.  If it is getting bigger or it doesn&amp;#039;t go away within 10 days then go and see a doctor about it.
