There is a certain relationship between the axillary lump and the menstrual period. Therefore, this lump should contain breast tissue, so it is very likely to be an accessory breast. Accessory breast is a common breast malformation in women. It is often an underdeveloped tissue, most of which look like a baby's breast, or only a little darkening of the skin pigmentation, with a little skin thickening in the center, similar to a small nipple. Some have only mammary glands, some have only nipples, but there are also complete breasts (nipples, areolas, glands) visible in the axilla, and they are larger. Accessory breasts swell and hurt during menstruation.

Suggestions: Because accessory breasts are affected by female hormones, they become swollen and painful during the menstrual cycle, pregnancy or lactation period; some accessory breasts secrete milk that cannot be emptied and accumulate, which can easily cause swelling, inflammation and even suppuration; in addition, the diseases that normal breasts may face, such as mastitis, lobular hyperplasia, breast fibroids, breast cancer, etc., can also befall accessory breasts, and the possibility of being harmed is higher than that of normal breasts; therefore, it is recommended to undergo surgical removal as soon as possible after the accessory breast is discovered and confirmed.
