Hi! how are you? I am a new cat owner, we have 2 kittens (well they are about
10 months old now) and they both recently went to the vet at the same time to
get neutered!!! About 2 days after their surgery i noticed that one of that
cats had a swollen gland underneath his armpit.. the next day i checked both
of them again and they both had a swollen gland underneath each arm pit. I am
worried. Does anyone have an idea? Should i be worrying or is it something
that cats get? PLEASE HELP!

It could well be some sort of an infection, be it viral, fungal or
parasitic. Whatever it is, it's not something that occurs after
neutering; its post-surgical manifestation is coincidental, ISTM. Best
take them back to the vet to get checked out. HTH.
