Person with a lived experience of cancer

How did it start?
It started with boil on my armpit before I went ahead to see doctor, he asked that the pus coming out from the wound should be taken to the lab for experiment . Whenever i wear bra, I do notice this severe pain. I thought it was the new bra I bought,but when I wear the old one the pain still continues.
