I am a 29yo female. I notice a painless, pea sized lump under my left arm pit on a self breast exam on 11-11-18. I went to my OBGYN on 11-14-18 for this. He said it was a lymphnode, and nothing to be concerned with. I have no injuries to cause an inflammatory response, am not sick. The lump is still present, & unchanged. I have messaged the office to see how much longer I am to wait and continue to assume it is nothing, or when to come back. On 11-25-18 it will have been there for at least 2 weeks, or longer as I had not done a self breast exam in a few months. Should I request further testing? I am slightly alarmed.
