Sharp pain in axilliary lymph node
Earlier today, while lifting my arms to remove my t-shirt, I felt a sharp pain in my left armpit. Upon touching the area, I noticed a slightly swollen lymph node in the axillary region. It's mildly tender when pressed, and I don’t recall any recent injury or infection.
For context:
I am 32 years old and had a normal mammogram in December 2024.
I stopped breastfeeding my baby (born in march 2023) long time ago (oct 2023)
I do have a family history of cancer on my paternal side.
I occasionally experience mild breast pain around ovulation, as previously discussed.
Please advice, I am very worried
