How To Get Rid Of Scars In My Armpit?
I have had a problem with quarter size puss pockets in my armpit for the last few years. They are extremely painful to touch and eventually pop by themselves. It started on only one armpit, but now both. And once they pop, it s thick pus at first then watery and some blood. Now I have scars left behind by those that popped. What causes this, and what can I do to treat this?
