Lump/ swelling under both armpits

2018-05-30 02:45:35
I have had swelling the size of a big mosquito bite under both my armpits for several months. The swelling pains when pressed but otherwise doesn't bother much. At first I thought maybe it is a reaction to using deodorant and I stopped using deodorant 1 month back but the swelling has still not reduced.
