Boils on underarm
Hi, I get regular boils on my underarm, it's is recurring problem. Have considered a lot of doctors and they said it's happening because of hair root follicle infection , none of the medicines are working out. Can someone help with a solution, a lot of doctors have suggested laser treatment but that can only be done if the boils heal.
