Swollen and painful left under armpit
Doctor 3 years ago, I got a pain under left armpit, felt like a lump when I touched it, showed to few local doctors, physician, ans they said it's lymp node which is swollen and gave medicines, but no relief. The pain and swelling is under left armpit.
Then that time also did sono mommgraphy of both breasts and both axilla, which reports showed normal, but little enlarged lymp nodes in mm. Pain was still there. Doctor gave medicines after checking reports, and it was like on and off pain after that. Then between few months there was no pain at all. Now suddenly just one month before again I felt swelling and pain under my left armpit, lymp nodes. It is painful.
So showed to my gynaecologist, who again checked and told me to repeat sono mommgraphy of same. Which I did few days before. Reports were normal again, but left lymp nodes we're showing enlarged with 2 swollen nodes 1.5 cm and 1.6 cm both in left axilla /armpit.
My gynaec started 10 days antibiotics, but no relief in pain yet.

Please ask your doctor if some pus can be aspirated and sent for culture.
If it is a solid mass then FNAC can be done.
You have exhausted all the conventional methods of treatment. Now we have to go for investigations ; starting from FNAC. Next may be CT of the chest.
