I found a small pea size lump under my arm pit close to breast about 3months ago. I just had consult with doctor in breast clinic. They told me it could be swollen glands as it not hard or big it’s not cancer. I’m still a little worried as I didn’t get mammogram or no other test s what should I do. Am I over worrying or should I get second opinion

Thank you for sharing your concerns with us about the pea size lump under your armpit.
The good news is that you went to a breast clinic, which is a clinic that should have expertise in evaluating those lesions.
However, depending on the size, age, location, a mammogram or an ultrasound would be useful to make sure something more serious is not being missed.
We could schedule a time for a short conversation to go over your concerns. That would be much cheaper than going through a complete second opinion and would provide value and peace of mind.
