Answer 2

Boils in the armpits.... Only 2 main diagnosis...
1) furunculoses which means bacterial infection of the hair root in that area. It is a contagious and infectious condition. You will need oral antibiotics and may be pulse therapy of oral antibiotics so that they dont come back.... besides this hot formentation would help along with topical antibiotic cream. Lancing if its too big or very painful.
2) Second diagnosis is Hidradenitis suppurativa.... Something similar to acne on the face..... If you have had it for 2 -3 years.... You would require isotretinoin (Accutane)

So meet your dermatologist at the earliest ....both the conditions can lead to scarring.

Answer 3

May want to try eating things that boost the immune system. Garlic, onions, blueberries, tomatoes, foods like that. You may also want to try looking into a good herbal medicine, there's a few that might be good for this but personally I'm not sure which one.
