I have this reoccurring lump in my armpit, doctors are stuck between a cyst and a condition called HS. If it is HS what are good things to manage it and how would I go around shaving, showering and what products I should use. I’ve started using antibacterial soap in the meantime as well but what would you suggest and what do you think I have. Thank you
Hi, I am a 21yr old black male and I have been having these lumps in my armpit for about 2 years now. It regrows in the same spot and is very painful and sometimes pus oozes out. I’ve been having antibiotics to treat this and an anti bacterial cream and these seemed to work but every couple of months it comes back. I’ve spoken to my doctor and they just said it could be hs but for the meantime to take antibiotics when there is a flare up. I’ve done some research in hs but I would like to know for you guys/gals what works for you, how to treat/live with it, what can I buy or do to lessen the reoccurrences, what foods to stay away from and what stage I could be in.(Photos are on my page). All advice is greatly appreciated and welcome. Thank you
Hi all, I’ve been have a lump in my right armpit for the last 2 years and it flares up every couple of months. I’ve had it 6 times during this period and it gets infected and inflamed. Sometimes it breaks the skin and oozes pus out. When there is no infection the lump doesn’t hurt but I can still feel it when I press down. What do you guys think it might be and would be my treatment.
