I'm so so scared I have breast cancer in my 20s! Please HELP :( ?

I have a hard round lump in the middle of my armpit deep down,it's a lymph node clearly. The area hurts and just started hurting 1 day ago. I had my covid shot in that same arm a WEEK,almost 2wks ago. I'm really worried. It's hard and very very slightly moves but not much. Is this cancer!? I'm really worried. I don't know if it was there before my shot. If it was from the shot why is it here this long later? It's about nickel sized. It almost feels like there's two. It's hard to feel unless I hunt for it. I'm in my 20s and a girl. There's like 3 there swollen it feels like. They feel like they move around when i touch them and they're hard.

    I guess you are lucky if you haven't had sore lymph nodes or breast cysts before now.  Neither one is dangerous or rare.  I wouldn't be at all surprised if covid shot would provoke a sore lymph node; this is just a sign that the lymph node is working harder than usual.  And so I'm guessing that is what it is, rather than a cyst.

    Breast cancer typically will not move, and practically never happens at your age.

    The ONLY way to get a diagnosis is to see a doctor, rather than spamming this site with repetetive questions.

    It’s NOT breast cancer.  Your other answer was good on your first q.
