The presence of a solid lump in the armpit could have various causes, including swollen lymph nodes, cysts, or infections. It's important to have it examined by a healthcare professional to determine the underlying cause. If the lump is painful, enlarges, or persists, seek medical attention promptly. Self-examination and awareness are crucial, but a professional evaluation will provide a more accurate diagnosis and appropriate guidance.
