Suggest remedy for foul smelling big fat lump below armpit
Patient: i am 33 years of age n have a big fat lump just below the armpit.  i have got it checked out n have been told it is a fat lump and nothing to worry about.  but the odour is terrible.  even after a shower, the armpit with the lump still smells....the lump is growing bigger n if i press then it hurts.  what is the solution for the smell as it is getting embarrasing now Doctor: Hi,I suspect the original diagnosis is wrong and this is an abscess. I suggest you see a doctor as you probably need antibiotics and if there is no improvement you may need incision and drainage. Regards,Dr K A PottingerMBChB. FRCA
