Important question...doctors or anybody step in

Question

I recently and still am having a boil problem. I had a good number of boils breakout on my body. My most recent boil appeared on the left side of my body, right next to my b*****s, under my armpit. Also with this last boil I received some bumps under my arm. is it because of an infection. Or should I be worried about somthing else

Answer 1

Sometimes they can be caused because of an ingrown hair. Im guessing you shave ur armpits...? It could be something deeper tho, u really should call ur doctor and make an appt.

Answer 2

wish I was Dr. Joe Esposito... then I could help you!

Did you just start having this problem? Maybe they are from an antiperspirant, which is horrible for you anyway. Any new environmental factors that could cause it?

Answer 3

Boils ARE infections.  A doctor's visit is definitely in order.  Get going!

Answer 4

I would most certainly have them checked out, It easy for them to turn into a staph infection or even mrsa if not drained and treated with antibiotics.

Answer 5

When I hear boil, the first thing I think about is an MRSA infection.  Left untreated or treated too late you can die.

MRSA can be kept under control with strong antibiotics.

Good Luck

Answer 6

Better safe than sorry....See a doctor.
