Now I know that I have floaters.
But sometimes I have these things which are kinda hard to explain.
They're like tiny dots that bright and the move around my eye.
I haven't had them for a while but just today they were there but only for like 5 seconds.
I had actually confused those as floaters and told the eye doctor they were floaters. He checked my eyes and said it was ok.
Now that I know they aren't floaters (even though I do have them) I have no idea what they are. I can't find them online.
Does anyone know what this is? Or has anyone had this before?
Also underneath my armpits I have lumps.
One under each pit. The left armpit has a small lump which isn't painful, but the right one has a larger one that is painful when you push on it.
I found this (http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/003099.htm) website.
And this stands out:
Considerations
Lumps in the armpit (axilla) have various causes. Cysts and superficial infections in the skin of the armpit may follow shaving or use of antiperspirants (as opposed to deodorants). This occurs most frequently in adolescents just beginning to shave. Subcutaneous (under the skin) abscesses may also produce large, painful lumps in the armpit.
That seems like it would explain the lumps but I really have no idea what it means.
Can anyone explain??
