• Lump on armpit?

My boyfriend gets turned on by biting. The few times he did do it he bit me pretty hard on my armpit. He did not break the skin. A few months later I have three small, hard lumps under the skin on my armpit. Could it be related? I am prone to skin cysts but it doesn’t feel like that. It is not painful.

The lumps under your armpit might not be from the biting, but it’s a good idea to see a doctor to be sure. It could be something like a swollen lymph node or a cyst. Even if it’s not painful, it’s best to have it checked. A dermatologist at Irvine Skin can help you find out what it is and what to do next.

Hi, It is possible that bite trauma led to either cyst or scar formation. Best to get looked at by a local dermatologist who can determine the exact nature of the lumps.
