I have a pain under my armpit and it hurts if i'm moving around or lifting. what could this be?

An infection: Many times hair follicles in places like this get infected and they would be painful, especially with movement. Have a health care professional..You doctor or an urgent care center take a look at it before it gets any worse.

See doctor: Agree with Dr. N. It is likely an infection of hair follicles or lymph nodes. It would be prudent to seek care before it gets worse. Have a healthy diet, exercise, drink plenty of water, have safe sex, and get HPV vaccine. Wish you good health! Nutrition: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/.
