Suggest Treatment For Lumps In Spine & Back
I get large lumps on my spine, back of my head, neck which come and go every month. Sore to touch. I suffer with hirsutism and have been seen by an endocrinologist who says my androgens are "in normal levels" the lumps last about a week every month.

Hi.
Thanks for your query and an elucidate history.
This looks to be due to furunculosis,/ boils. This is due to failure of the skin to adopt to the hormonal changes as you have rightly noticed.
Yet you can try this :::
Apply liquid povidone iodine twice daily to the area where you get this problem.
Take Vitamin A 3 lac units and Vitamin D - 1 sachet daily for 3 days. Also take Doxycyclin daily for weeks - till you get a result.
I hope this helps you.
No stress is very important... Stress is a cause of many problems.
