A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hidradenitis: Hidradenitis usually refers to sweat gland inflammation in the armpit areas, but can potentially be found anywhere where sweat glands are. It's usually an infectious process and treated with antibiotics. In bad cases, incision and drainage can be employed to drain large abscesses.
