Suggest Treatment For Swollen Lump Under The Breasts
I keep having these recurring places on my female parts and occasionally on the under side of my breast and the lower part of my belly. They swell up like a boil but only blood comes from them and they often leave scars. Could this be something wrong with my swet glands?

Hello,
The boil-like lumps that you have mentioned are most probably due to staph.aureus infection or a specific condition called MRSA infection.
The parts that you have mentioned are usually those areas of your body which are usually moist and are preferred places for such infections. Low immunity might also be one of the reasons.
Keep these areas clean and dry and wear mostly cotton. Please consult your doctor who will prescribe an appropriate antibiotic.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
