Are you talking about a swollen lymph node in your arm pit?  All humans have lymph nodes in our arm pits.  The lymphatic system helps filter out toxins in the body.  If your lymph node under your arm is swollen, you might want to just check in with your doctor to be on the safe side.  If you use a heavy deoderant (stick) you should switch to a lighter roll on or a gel.  I had this problem myself, and switching to the gel helped.

I believe they are caused by body parts that rub up against each other such as your arm rubbing up against your chest. I don't have any website to prove it...Sorry.

Yes, I sweat but it doesn't increase armpit hair. I've never heard of that before. I don't have a problem with underarm hairs.

provide more details.\n# problem in your spine?\n# inflammation of a group of nerves in the armpit (brachial plexus)?\n# nerve inflammation because of a systemic disease like diabetes?

it is hyperhidrosis.\nyou have hyper sweat glands in your skin.\nparts affected: forehead/face, armpit, hands, feet.\ndoc says to use anti-perspirants. but if it still fails, an operation is required, an operation that will cut your sweat glands. but it can't promise a sucess always.\ni'll let you know if my case improves, cause i think maybe hormonal imbalance is somewhat connected to this condition, me will balance me hormones.

The same thing happened to my sister.  She said not to get bath oils, body shower gels, lotions, etc in the navel.  She always cleans it with alcohol and a q tip every day.  As to what causes it, she never did tell the doctor and she was operated on in 1988.  I'll keep watch here and see if someone knows why.

I have this disease, and it isn't fun believe me. Blockages in the sweat glands or follicles occur, causing extremely painful boils in the the arm pits, under breasts, groin, pubic areas and the perineum.  I usually get three or more a month in one, or all above areas at the same time. No one seems to know what causes it. Could be hereditery since my mother had this. It is seen mostly in women. It can occur during puberty, but onset is mainly seen in the 30's. There is also no cure, except for the draining and healing of each boil. Ppl with this  condition also have a greater risk of skin cancer and is seen in almost 50% of the patients that have had this condition long term, over a period of decades. In very severe cases, cutting out the most affected areas is recommended.  Mastectomies in women and penile extractions in men sometimes have to be done.  Some studies suggest that in diabetics with this condition, cutting out caffeine from the diet tends to slow down the onset of the boils. I hope this helps. Have a great day

Well, armpits are a pain because razors NEVER conform to the shape of an armpit and the bikini line is very sensitive but the place that has been shaved on my body that is the worst??? My elbow.  When I went for surgery last year to have a broken arm fixed, they have to shave the little hairs on your arm.  So now I have the hairs on my elbow again but they are blacker.  Oy.

HI. IT COULD JUST BE A IRRITATED GLAND OR LYMPHNOID ( WE HAVE TONS OF THEM IN OUR NECKS). I WOULD WAITE A FEW DAYS AND IF IT IS NOT GONE YOU SHOULD HAVE IT CHECKED. BETTER SAFE THEN SORRY. GOOD LUCK.

I first got armpit hair when I was 11.\n\nEveryone develops at different rates according to hormones.  Nothing to do with height and age.

It is a finding on xray, that is very dense, as dense as bone, but is not a bone.  It is evidence of an old infection that has been sequestered to a lymph node.  Fungal infections, tuberculosis, parasites and some environmental elements can be taken out to the lymph nodes, where the body has a particular reaction, called a granulomatous reaction, ie forms a granuloma, and takes care of the infection.  Frequently, the granuloma gets calcified before the body can clear up the debris, and it will be with you always.  I have had one in my left armpit for the last 40 years.  They always comment on it in mammograms, but it is stable and is just an incidental finding.  Almost never are calcified granulomas evidence of any current disease process.  Rest easy, all is okay.  If that is the worst finding in your health workup, go celebrate.

Please take my advice. I have tried everything. Some people that offer suggestions like "try Rite guard, or whatever have regular armpits, not like us.\nI suspect that you suffer from Hyperhydrosis, your armpits sweat all the time, not just when you are working out or whatever. Even if I am cold, I can feel sweat dripping down my armpits. This is not normal.\nMy sister has this problem, too.\nThere is an anti-perspirant called CERTAIN-DRY. This is made for you and me (and my sis) You put it on at night and it helps to shrink your armpit glands that sweat way too much. Put it on at night and do NOT put it on after shaving your pits. Wait a few hours or it will burn or itch.\nIt takes a few weeks but it REALLY helps!!\nAfter a few months, you only have to use it every few days. I still wear a regular deodorant during the day. I have to but, the Certain-Dry really works.\nMy life has really changed. I can wear so many things now that I could NEVER have worn before. My sister, too.\nIt is funny how something as simple as an anti-perspirant can really change things in your life.\n\nYou can find Certain-Dry in most drugstores. It is kinda hard to locate on the shelf, though. It comes in a box. It is in the deodorant section but, it is not right in there with all the regular deodorants, look around, it is usually near the more obscure ones. \nGo to the store and get it now!!! It really works.\nIf it dosen't work, your hyperhydrosis is more severe than most and a doctor can help. I hear they shoot Botox into your pits, in that case.\n\nWhat are you waiting for??? Grab your keys and get to the store??!!!! SUMMER IS ALMOST HERE!!!!
