Default Painful lumps in armpit - caused by tos??

Hi everyone,

I remember a while ago i saw some mention of the lymph system being affected by tos.

The last 6 months or so i have been getting small painful lumps in my right armpit (my symptomatic side) and one time in my left armpit. They are very tender but never amount to anything (they dont pop - just leave surface of my skin a bit red) They have been coming and going so eventually i went to docs earlier today and he wants to send me to have a lymph node biopsy!!!

It then occured to me that this could possibly be tos related so thought i would run it past you guys.....my doc did suggest possibly just blocked sweat glands but wants to refer me for tests to be sure.

very worried now - trying not to as i know most cancers (lymphomas and hodgkins) are not painful lumps.....but then i also know that tos seems to be responsible for all sorts of strange things!!
