Hi, I'm a 26 years old female and have been experiencing a swollen lymp node in my armpit for the last two yrs. It is moveable and painless but my arm pains when I do chores or any other lifting. It felt very prominent when I sleep to the side where it is located. Is this serious?

Dear, being there for last two years gives the impression it is not malignant. It may be infected cyst. Better is to get it removed. It may become painless after medical treatment but the it will get repeated infection and give rise to pain.
