Where are the glads that are in our armpits? (serious answer pls)?

Question

I was just wondering where those glands are because I have two areas on th sides of my b*****s (kind of in that region) that have been really sore for the past couple weeks (like when you press on a bruise) and I was wondering if that meant my glands were swollen? Please only answer if serious, thank you.

Answer 1

Maybe you sweat a lot. If that's true, you need to be more hygenic, because there are glands as well as lymph nodes in that area that can get very painful if inflamed. Hygeine is the answer.

Answer 2

Feel for lumps.

There are instructions all over the internet on how to do this.

And you should schedule an exam with your doctor.

The reason I say this, is there are lymph nodes in your armpits (and all over you body) that can be the first site of cancer.

And the ones in and around your armpits, are the ones that are closely related to breast cancer in women.

So, if you're feeling things around there, you MUST see a doctor, OK?

I'm not trying to freak you out, but seriously, you need to see a doctor to know for sure, because if they catch this soon, they can fix the problem without too much problem.

I had a girlfriend who was 18, had lumps there, went in, and in one day the problem was solved.

If she would have waited, she probably would have died of breast cancer, so go see a doctor, OK?
