Concern

I am 23 yrs old, I have been feeling sore under my right armpit. I'm thinking maybe a swollen lymph node, or that my wire bra irritated it while sleeping. It's been sore for a cpl of days and I'm beginning to think the worst.

I also have a shooting pain in my right hip, I'm thinking maybe a pinched nerve.

Can you help?

I am going to the doctor next week, but wanted something to go on before I go.

Hi
Welcome to the MedHelp forum!
Yes, pain in armpit could be due to wire of the bra pressing, swollen lymph node or due to sweat dermatitis. It is also possible due to peripheral artery disease. Peripheral neuropathies as in diabetes, chemical burns due to any deo or lotions you use, peripheral nerve compression are the other possibilities.
Shooting pain in hip can be due to pinched nerve. You will need nerve conduction studies and MRI of the spine for diagnosis. Hope this helps. Take care!
