I have a pea size knot in the center of my armpit. it's painful when touched. what could this be?

Tough: Could be an ingrown hair or something else ... In all honesty, it's best to have it checked out by your doctor because the axilla (ie, the armpit) is a major site of lymphatic drainage. Hope that helps!
