Red boils under the armpit
Hi. I have got some boils under my right armpit from the last 5-6 days. I use to have itching generally due to sweating but this is the first time I have boils. They are painful. Yesterday even puss was coming out but they haven't subsided much. Infact I am seeing more red spots on my skin under the arm pit. Please guide on how to treat.
