how can u distinguish lymph nodes from cysts, or absesses?.. i have had bumps under my armpit and im just wondering if they are lymphs or cysts or maybe even absesses.. they are smaller than a pencil eraser. they arent red but are a little pink so u can barely see them.. they pop up kinda like pimples but a little bit less under the skin. anyways, what does a lymph look like and feel compared to cysts and absesses?...

Your lymph nodes are a part of your body. I know that two of them are in your neck, and sore lymph nodes are always a sign of an infection.
I am no doctor, so as to the bumps under your armpits, you really should see a doctor if it bothers you that much.
Bumps under the armpits could be a symptom of a several different disease, but they could also just be dry skin.
