Swelling and boils in underarms

Question

Asked for Male, 26 Years

Hi, I have swelling and boil in my underarms on my left hand. I got this type of boil in my other hand few weeks ago which got away when I took antibiotics like cipmox 500. Now again it happened in my other underarms. Is it something to worry about if it's occuring again.
