Armpit Pain: The armpit, also known as the axilla, is a common location for lymph node enlargement. Other structures in or around the armpit--such as nerves, muscles, bones and blood vessels--can cause underarm pain or discomfort. Underarm pain may be caused by traumatic injury, nervous system disorders or certain medical conditions. Some types of underarm pain require medical intervention.
