Hi ,
Is/was the lump soft or firm and about what size was it?
Trigger points are usually fairly small knots - I think generally about the size of a pea or pencil eraser or even smaller - unless you have major problems and knots on top of knots
. This is just my observance from mine though.
Under the armpit could be swollen lymph nodes also.
Therapist would do lymph drainage technique then , you can do some of it your self.
It's just basically a light stroke of the skin towards the heart.
