I have found a hard lump in my arm pit..it is movable. I also have stomach pains the last 3 days. What could this be? There is a small pea side lump on my breast, the same side as my armpit lump. At doc today and sending me for an ultersound. Wanting your advice on this?
Hi. Please do not take otherwise. If you are known to have a lump in breast and armpit on the same side, good that you are going for an ultrasonography. But insist on going for USG guided FNAC- Fine needle aspiration cytology, as this may give a diagnosis, sonography can not tell whether this is cancer or not. If required / in doubt request them for excision biopsy; as this being a cancer or not has all the different implications on life and many patients out of fear or out of expectation make it late for diagnosis changing the stage in which they may be suffering. I am not trying to frighten you, want to make you aware to go for the tissue diagnosis at the earliest. To decide that nature of it. Stomach pain can have another reasons.
