What is Axillary Breast?
An axillary breast is an abnormal development of breast tissue in the armpit region due to hormonal influence during puberty. It may appear as a small lump or large swelling and can cause discomfort or self-consciousness. Though not dangerous in most cases, treatment is recommended for cosmetic improvement, pain relief, and preventing complications like infection.
