Help! Swollen & sore armpit lymph nodes??

[Char123x]

Hi, firstly health anxiety here! I've had lumps come and go in the past, and these have been coming and going since Tuesday/Wednesday of this week. Started with one jn one armpit which then goes and then another one came up etc and now have two in both armpits and they are sooooo sore. I actually had bloods for something else on Monday and the results have been updated and nothing looks out of the ordinary but waiting to speak to a doctor at some point next week. I am fighting a nasty cough/cold, am super run down, been very stressed lately and also periods due in two days... just looking for som reassurance and also how to make them better as they are sooooo sore. Thank you!!

How often are you touching them because you constantly doing that will make them swell and be sore from bruising.
Leave them alone for a week and see how it is.

I had the exact same last week.

Nasty nasty cold virus, felt like I had been hit by a bus and the painful lumps came up in my armpit.

Over the course of a week as I got over the virus they went down on their own. It's happened to me before as well.

See how they go but I wouldn't worry too much.

Thank you so much, I just worry about everything so just needed some reassurance as this is the most I've had in both, but I am super run down with a nasty cold plus period so it's probably all of those things. Yea leaving them alone and not even using deodorant! But not sure what else to try will just leave them be for now. Really appreciate the replies thank you xx

I used to always get these!! I figured it was my deodorant!! I now use roll on & never get them!
