A member asked:
I have under each arm pit a knot or some sort of cyst. i would like to know if this could be a result of doing a lot of exercise or what?

Prob.not: Axillary lymph nodes are most common in the location you are describing and are not related to exercise .If they are painful, tender or enlarging see your pcp for evaluation
