Armpit lumps
Can you pick lymph nodes up when you pick your skin up? Or would they not be able to be picked up as in they’re attached to the skin? I am able to pick my skin up in my armpit and the lumps move with it. My doctor says they are sebaceous cysts/ sac filled cysts. I wouldn’t be able to move them like I can if they’re lymph nodes. Is this correct? I have health anxiety. They’re soft squidgy have been present for 8 months and they’re pea sized

Yes that's right. Its not lymph node. It can be sebaceous cyst as your doctor mentioned. But since the duration has been 8 months it can be a lipoma also. Is it painful?
