Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
For several months now I ve had a recurring leaking in my armpit. I ve had a couple of abcesses there which have been operated on about 8 months ago. Then a district nurse was round every day to change the wounds. But in the last six months I ve had leakage. I practically have to shower twice a day or it smells really horrible
Sometimes the abcess that is formed in a certain place has the risk of being repeated even though it could be cleaned well by the doctor. I can suggest you to visit again a surgeon or doctor to see it and check if it is reported. It needs to be opened and cleaned surgically.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Olgeta Xhufka, General & Family Physician
