Can underarm laser hair removal cause damage that would create tired/ heavy feeling beginning in the underarm, continuing all the way down the arm into the hand? I've been evaluated for such discomfort but my doctor advised my lymph nodes and extremities do not appear swollen, though he noted I could have lymph nerve irritation from the laser treatments. Is this normal and what steps should I take for further evaluation and/or treatment.
