[Darren1]

Ok so ive started having pain in my armpits. Mostly it feels burning but the last few times the sensation has felt like i am sweating. twice i have checked but my armpits are dry!

what on earth is this? i thought lymph glands but there are no lumps!

is it just anxiety?

Hello Darren1,

It is very humid today, the whole office is saying that they feel like they are having hot sweats without the sweats!

If it is bothering you, go and get some air or go for a walk, but I too feel sweaty without the sweats....

This is one of the main symptoms of anxiety - temperature changes, fortunately one of the mildest symptoms, so do not fear!

Hope you feel cooler soon, and no need to worry

Anxiety affects the blood vessels of the skin, stress sweat glands and hair follicles. This is a very common symptoms and not just related to armpits. I get it down my back a lot.
