text: i have lumps under my armpits. what are they? should i worry? i was told by my doctor that they most likely are clogged sweat glands, but they're getting bigger and hurt more. are they cysts,clogged glands or something else? i no longer have medical and can't afford all of my health care. go back to your doctor..if they are changing, you need to be seen. if he says they are nothing to worry about, ask him to recommend an endo-doctor..at the very least, i would want them needle biopsied. stay well.... :)       from my heart to yours....................
