A member asked:
Is clindamycin phosphate 1% effective against hidradenitis and most bacterial problems in the armpit ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hydradenitis: This is a very difficult problem that is not easy for professionals to treat, please don't try yourself. If you don't have a compassionate care provider find one. You can get some of these glands removed surgically. The range of bacteria involved would need more than any single antibiotic.
