I've developed the strangest sore on my side, or what might actually be
termed an "underarm" but not really right on it. More like underneath it
outside the Realm of Hair, to use a proper noun.
I've never seen anything like it. It's like this raised, reddish "thing".
It's not swollen. It just looks like it's growing out of me or something.
It's probably about 3/32 of an inch long and looks very much like a
kitten's nipple. The area around it is a little pink, but not swollen at
all.
I tried mashing it. There's no sensation in it at all. It's just hanging
out there in such a way that it's tempting to snip it off with a pair of
sterilized toenail clippers. It doesn't itch and it's not sore to touch.
It's perhaps irritated by walking around and swinging my arms. There's no
hair growing out of the center or anything.
Sheesh. I can't stand looking at it. I snipped it off. I almost cut a
little too close and felt a little bite so I moved out a little. It looks
like it might have been some kind of small bit of hardened pus or something
from a sore I never knew about or something, or perhaps a hair follicle.
But I don't know. It's bleeding a little, but I'm going to watch it for
the next few days to see if it tries to grow back.
I don't have a history of moles or anything. I don't know of any moles on
my body anywhere, so I'm guessing it wasn't any kind of developing cancer.
It was just really weird.
The bleeding has stopped in the time I've taken to write this, so that's
good.
Oh, the only thing I'm really doing different in that area is using Dr.
Burt's Lavender Mint deodorant to get away from regular aerosol deodorants
containing aluminum, which supposedly can lead to brain disorders later in
life, like Alzheimer's.
Thanks for any clues about what this might have been.
