A member asked:
I have a large lumpy feeling lump in my right armpit, had it for 5 years, it started as one tiny pea sized lump and grew to a golf ball size. is it bad?

Get it checked by Do: Any lump larger than 2cm(one inch) requires an examination by your doctor. He/she needs to confirm it with further testing. A biopsy may be indicated if it is suspicious for cancer. Good luck.
