Ellebel 67 Posted August 30, 2022 Hi All! as u know i have been worrying about breastcancer so i was feeling around my axilla for nodes. I dont really feel anything special but at one point it felt as if something ‘jumped’ from underneath my fingers. Havent been able to retrace it. what worries me is that i read on the internet that a pathological node can be felt to ‘pop’ while palpating downwards. I dont know exactly how to interpret ‘pop’, but it sounds like what i felt. Could this be a cancerous node that i felt? Anyone ANY experience with nodes ‘popping’ or jumping from under your fingers? greatly appreciated! thnx Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ellebel 67 Posted August 31, 2022 Is it though? I had never heard about it before but if it is through that its the malignant nodes that shoot away under your fingers then i should probably have it looked at. On the other hand if its common for lumps bumps and nodes to shoot away from your fingers, it is 100% normal what i felt. Not to strange to ask to verify right?

You can verify, but it's a big longshot. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
