Q: Sweat glands
asked by: evlstar on March 21st, 2009

I have got a reccuring problem with my sweat glands. It started last year in jan. I went to the docs and she put me on antibiotics but they didn't work.The gland spands the whole of my left armpit and was painful. It came back about a month ago in my left arm. It has been very painful (I cant lift my arm). I went to a doc whilst away and he said if I was staying he would refer me to have it removed. He put me on antibiotics and told me to see a doc when I get home. I saw a doc and was told as I had an infection I could not be refferd yet but to come back in a week. I saw somebody else and he said its pointless removing it if it comes back again and just gave me a deodorant to stop sweating. My armpit it still painful, I cant wash and getting dressed is a nusense. Is there anything you could suggest?
Thank you
