That's what someone here on Y!A told me. I get them ALL the time. & also I heard that it might be the deodorant that's causing it. I have one right now that hurts & won't pop. Maybe I shouldn't squeeze it, but it hurts. It feels like a breast cancer lump, but I know it's not. & yes, I've heard how you can get breast cancer lumps in your pits.

This has been going on for about a week off and on. The fever is about 100 -101 and the achiness is equivilant to influenzia which I had last year. I have no other symptoms. Should I go to a doctor or just sit it out? Does anyone know what could be wrong?

I have this pain in my right side under my ribcage that has since overtaken my liver. My skin around my torso aches like when you have the flu. The symptoms came on quickly (within two hours) and have not abated. I have not had a fever or any other symptoms. What could it be?

My left eye is swollen and has been since yesterday, and I have a cough. My eye just slightly hurts when I blink it. If I went Christmas shopping today (I've planned on it since the beginning of this week), would that not be a good idea? Should I go see a doctor now? I have had a swollen eye recently too. But I always seem to wake up with a swollen eye when I've been crying a few hours before I go to bed the night before. Could this be the cause?

Despite being sick with a cold, I need to make Christmas cookies for friends and family as I do every year. Can I spread my cold to people who eat the cookies when they are done? What if I accidentally cough or sneeze on them?

I asked this question the other day and the answer was very good, http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AqlwI37F8VwIIuA.Amo42Irsy6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20071217082802AAERkBL

I looked it up and began home treatments, I was sure it was tonsillitis, but the symptoms weren’t going away. So I went to the doctor who was also sure it was tonsillitis because the symptoms matched exactly and I didn’t have a fever at any time. Well I asked for a strep test anyway to rule it out and guess what?

It’s Strep. The doctor said the same thing as the website did, strep comes on with a fever and usually no cold symptoms (refer to link for my symptoms).

Why didn’t I get a fever? And why did the symptoms present themselves as tonsillitis instead of strep throat?
