Oncology (General Cancer) - Sore red bump under left armpit


Expert: Claes-Gustaf Nordquist, M.D. - 7/2/2008

Question
Dr.
About 5 days ago I noticed a small bump under my left armpit. I plan to go to the Dr. as soon as I am done working the first week of July.
It is now getting sorer and becoming red. It does no seem to be an ingrown hair or a pimple or boil, it has no head. It is pretty hard and does not seem to move like a cyst.
What is your opinion.?

Answer
Probably a local infection/inflammation, but go to your dr.!

I'm sorry to bother you with an appeal for help. I know that it is exactly the opposite of
what you expect from a volunteer at AllExperts. But I really have nowhere else to turn,
except to the people whom I have helped in the past. Nevertheless, I will certainly
understand if you are unable to respond positively, and I sincerely hope that you will think
no less of me for asking.

Due to a stroke that I suffered nearly six years ago, my ability to work has been severely
limited. Now, because of a diagnosis of cancer, I will be unable to work at all for the next
several months. That will deplete what little savings I have left and leave me with debts
that I cannot sustain. Herb Cooper, one of my American friends, has posted an appeal on
AllExperts that explains the situation in more detail. You can read it at the following link,
which you may have to copy into your browser:
http://en.allexperts.com/q/Pharmacy-1407/2008/7/Cancer-doc-cancer.htm

I am conducting this appeal entirely through AllExperts, in order to forestall suspicions of
a scam. However, if you have any doubts or questions, you are most welcome to contact
me through AllExperts, as you did before. Any help to me should be entirely voluntary!
Thank you for your kind attention and for any help that you may give to me.
Best regards,

Claes-Gustaf Nordquist, M.D.
