A member asked:

I see whenever i use anti persperant i get a bump/cyst in my underarm..what is its cause,seriousness & cure? i sweat real bad.any alternative solution

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Blocked ducts: Antiperspirant blocks sweat gland ducts. This can sometimes result in germs or oils or sweat getting trapped and causing a cyst. Regular deodorant doesn't do that. If the sweating is excessive, there are other ways of dealing with it that a doctor might explore with you. Look up hyperhidrosis.
