Sore lump in armpit ?!

[Gemmamarie92]

Has anyone else had this? 34 weeks pregnant and I’ve got a painful lump in my armpit just abit worried don’t know if it’s to do with being pregnant?!

I had this (although I wasn't pregnant) and it turned out to just be my glands fighting an infection as I later had mild cystitis. It's likely to be your glands and my Dr said the most common cause is your body fighting infection. X

If in doubt speak to your gp or mention it to midwife at next appt. Pp is right about infection but if it doesn't settle then def speak to someone.

I got that and within a few days had shingles. So as said usually a form of fighting off something. Get it checked out.

If this doesn't go of its own accord in the next two weeks then you MUST go to the GP please. Lumps in armpits that don't go are a sign of breast cancer, even without any other sign in the breasts themselves.
