i'm having this lump in my left armpit for almost a year, it's not an ingrown hair , i thought it's a one but it's not , also in that place i don't have hair growing up so and it's kinda between my armpit and my breast , i'm so afraid it could be cancer because already in my left breast i have an inverted nipple and i read that inverted nipples could be a reason for breast cancer, I'm freaked out..i usually wax my underarm hair and i never shave but now i stopped waxing it because of this lump i have and because my armpits is soo itchy and red , i don't understand what's that , what could it be? also if you notice i have red patches in my skin close to the lump , i just noticed them today , please help whats that???? is it a swollen lymph? i don't think so because this lump bleeds sometimes :(

I’m only 20 by the way

Instead of worrying about it why not go to a dermatologist and find out? I would worry about that too.

i will go as soon as possible but right now i have exams and in my city there are not good dermatologists .. do you have an idea what this could be please? I’m so freaked out and worried..

this looks very much like an infected ingrown hair or sweat gland

6

no it’s not an infected ingrown hair because it’s been like that for almost a year and it hurts , i do have ingrown hairs sometimes but this one is not

7

It could be a cyst. Does it feel hard or soft like fluid filled? If you have had this for a year I don’t think it’s cancer. Did it change at all over the year?

if the hair has got stuck it can firm a mini abcess, same with a blocked sweat gland. your gp can extract it no problem

9

i guess i have a skin condition called Hidradenitis suppurativa and it causes this :confused:

do you have an idea what could the red patches close to my armpiys be? i didn’t have them before and it scars me having them

Hi I think it’s skin irritation and a blackhead clogged pore (comedo ).
