What's wrong with the lump of meat under my armpit?

There is a lump of flesh under the armpit, which is actually the accessory breast of the human body. If it is born with you, it is called congenital accessory breast, and if it is gradually formed after birth, it is called acquired accessory breast. Regardless of whether it is congenital or acquired, it may be an axillary process or even a pathological accessory breast. In short, health is no small matter. If you find a lump of flesh under your armpit, it is best to go to the hospital for a check-up.

Accessory breasts are divided into two types: congenital and acquired. Congenital accessory breasts include pathological accessory breasts and axillary processes. The accessory breasts that people often talk about are mostly acquired accessory breasts without nipples and mammary glands, that is, pseudo-accessory breasts with only fat. By taking an X-ray at the hospital, you can tell whether the accessory breast is congenital or acquired.

Pathological accessory breast refers to the extra breast that appears in addition to the normal pair of breasts in the human body, usually appearing in front of the armpit or under the armpit. But it may also occur in areas around the Milk Line, such as above and below the normal breasts, the abdomen, and the groin.

Pathological accessory breasts have genetic factors, and there are three common types: nipples without mammary glands, nipples without mammary glands, and mammary glands and nipples. Attached is a heavy-tasting real-life picture…

Pathological accessory breast is rare. If you happen to have one, don't worry. Just go to the hospital for a minor surgery and it will be solved.

Improper underwear is the main culprit for causing false breasts.

In addition to adjusting the shape, bras that are too small in cup size or too high in side ratio that poke directly into the armpits will push the fat and tissue that originally belonged to the breasts toward the armpits, and over time, they will become "accessory breasts." If your auxiliary breasts are not obvious when you take off your bra, but appear to have a lump of extra flesh after you put them back on, it's basically the bra's fault.

If your accessory breasts are caused by ill-fitting bras, then change to a bra of the right size immediately. When wearing them, remember to push the flesh on your breasts and armpits into the cups. If you persist in doing this, your accessory breasts will be reduced to a certain extent, but the time and degree vary from person to person. When watching Japanese sumo wrestling matches, you will find that many athletes have a large lump of meat under their armpits. The so-called accessory breasts can also be seen on obese children. Being overweight is also one of the causes of accessory breasts, but at this time the accessory breasts are often fat accumulation, or to put it bluntly, armpit fat, which is caused by obesity.

To eliminate this type of accessory breast, you need to control your diet and move your legs, control your weight and do some exercises to reduce the accessory breast. There are such tutorials on Bilibili, and Victoria's Secret's pre-match training includes many exercises to help reduce accessory breasts.

During pregnancy and breastfeeding, accessory breasts are likely to accumulate due to the secretion of estrogen, the development of breast tissue and mammary ducts, poor blood circulation, and axillary lymphatic circulation.

In this case, it is recommended to do appropriate exercise during pregnancy to enhance blood circulation while not letting your weight exceed the standard too much. In addition, you should never apply or take any health supplements that aim to enlarge your breasts by taking estrogen.

Once pseudo-accessory breasts are formed, it takes a long process to eliminate them, and the degree of recovery varies from person to person. It is best to prevent them before they happen. Most of the girls I have met have accessory breasts due to body shaping. If you have a girl in her puberty around you, be sure to tell her to stay away from adjusting her bra from the very first time she wears it!
