Painful Lumps
So, I reacted to Wheat Thins Toasted Chips last night and a little bit today. I looked at all the ingredients to see what I could be allergic to; I found only rye, tritcale (a cross between rye and wheat), and barley. All the rest of the ingredients, I am pretty sure that they don't bother me. I Maybe because of one of these grains, I reacted to some bread that I ate at my parent's during the break. I am happy that I finally got something that I reacted to with so few ingredients. Most of the foods that I react to has a whole bunch of ingredients which I haven't singled out.
Since Tuesday, I have had a sore on my palate. Another one developed on gum right behind my right, furthest posterior molar a little later during the this week. The first one might have started from sucking on too many Lifesaver Wint-O-Green Mints. My mouth tends to get sore when I suck too much hard candy. However, I have no idea why I developed another one behind my molar. Usually, I am just kind of sore for a few days. It's been more than a few days now. I am coming close to a week. I know that I sound like a pansy right now. It's been really annoying though. I can't eat anything that hard because it hurts my mouth. The one one my palate is on my left side right next to the second molar counting from the front. I think that I normally eat on my left side too because I have to consciously push things to my right side. All I know that these things are getting annoying. I want them healed so I won't have to keep feeling them when I eat. These sores could be allergy related too.
My armpits are hurting me too. Since a teenager, I have developed lumps in my axillae. I think that my GP at that time said it was only a lymph node. I have noticed that I get them less if I shaved every two week instead of once a week. Both axillae have developed lumps this week. I shaved them last Sunday. They are also annoying when I have these lumps because they can get pretty big and painful. Pretty much for four hours, I was researching and got distracted into searching about painful lumps. Whenever it involves YouTube, I can get distracted for hours upon hours. I watched Embarrassing Body which involved common conditions and then got into the TV shows that featured the really rare disorders. When I came out of that, I discovered that it's four AM in the morning. So, I searched a little more and discovered that Staphylococcus aureus can be carried in the axilla. I already know that it likes to live in my nose. Ya, I think these lumps are abscesses instead of swollen lymph nodes because I noticed that they appear less when I shave less. I would like to try an electric shaver then. I think that they are abscess because their characteristics remind of me the abscess that I got on my behind. I have a tendency to get ingrown hairs since my hair is curly too.
