Gauges can take anywhere from four days to two weeks to heal. It is best to wait about one week until you change or go up a size in gauges, so that they can continue to heal p â¦ roperly and avoid infections.
Armpit lumps, or enlargements of one or both of the lymph nodes under the arm, can be cancerous, but may also be an indication of a viral infection such as shingles or chickenpox, a skin irritation stemming from shaving, an allergic reaction to deodorant or other products, or a cyst or boil.
A pea sized lump in armpit usually means you have a swollen lymph node under arms. Your lymph nodes are parts of lymphatic system and fight off bacteria and infections. If you have noticed a lump developing in your armpit, don't panic. In most cases, this is nothing serious and it resolves on its own in a few days.
