Quarter sized lump/knot in armpit incision area, 7 days p.o. BA. Advice? (photos)

Asked By:kikid26 in Kansas, KS

I have a quarter sized lump/knot under my right incision site in my armpit. it doesn't appear to the the mondor's chord, as it's just a lump. It's fairly sensitive, but both sites are as they are still healing. I see my PS on Monday, and I'm still taking antibiotics, just wondering if this is something that is common? I've attached a photo and circled where the lump is just so you can see where it's located. It's under the skin, so you can't really see much.
