A member asked:
I stretched my left arm over my left shoulder-not something i normally do. a itching lump arose 2 days later, but no pain. did i strain a lymph node?

No: No, you can't strain a lymph node by stretching. If the lump is itching and is in your armpit, it could be a clogged sweat gland that has caused a pimple to form. If it gets big enough over the next few days, it would be good to see a doctor to know what it is.
