Painful lump under my side chest
I have developed this small cyst on the straight line under my arm pit on the side of my chest. I have had it for more than a year now but it has never bothered. Tonight I have been feeling excruciating pain emitting from the cyst. The pain is like a pointed burn inside the cyst. Should I be worried?
