I'm so sorry to hear this I too had this terrible problem I had my sweat glands removed under both arm pits back in the 80's I,ve had no problem any more the only good thing is you don't sweat under your arms saves on deodrant.. But every where you have hair you can get a boil or too..I have heard you have to keep srtess out of your life and my dear back then I was in my 20's and now I am 50 years old with so many health problem it is hard to be stress free.. feel free to read about me my profile.. so of course I have some boils now that are not in a comfortable place  I say get the surg.. like your mom...

Peace

I think that this would Indeed be an Excellent Topic for discussion. I happen to know of other Women who have this (simular) problem.  Someone had suggested using a piece of Garlic under the arm, but I'm not that certain that it would help or hinder. Doctors' please kindly Advise.

Many Thanks!!!!!!
