Human papillomavirus is a diverse group of DNA-based viruses that infect the skin and mucous membranes of humans. More than 100 different human papillomavirus (HPV) types have been characterized. Some HPV types cause benign skin warts, or papillomas, for which the virus family is named. HPVs associated with the development of such "common warts" are transmitted...
Sorry this has nothing to do with hpv, but I was just wondering if anyone knew if we have lymph nodes in our arm pits or right below? I am asking because I have a small bump right below my left arm pit. It is painful..... like all around that area is sore. It feels like a bruise but its not. You can see the small bump only if you feel for it. The reason I was thinking it might be a lymph node is because also on my left side of my back I have a rash..... just in one spot. Im not sure if its a lymph node that is swollen because of the rash or if its something else. Can anyone answer this?? im sorry i know this doesnt have anything to do with this group.

Yes you have lymphnodes there. It would be worth checking out with your Dr. Since you sweat from your arm pits it's possible that mayeb you just have a clogged sweat gland. But I would mention it to your Dr.

Yes, we have lumphnodes in this area. When did you discomfort begin? continue to observe and if there is no resolution ina couple of days,them I'm in agreement with Christine, go to the Dr and have it checked out.

Girlfriend, check with your doctor. This could be a non-cancerous lump there, and may mean nothing ... either way hon, check it out. The area you describe is checked during a breast exam. Very important to check it out now. Hugs, Jewellee

Thanks for all your replies! The lump is gone but it still itches around that area in the same spot but there is no rash or anything. The rash on my back is starting to go away. I think that the lump was making it sore around there and the lymph node because I was feeling around and I found the lymph node and it was swollen and a little sore. It better now though, just waiting for the itching to go away

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
