So  since I was around 10 weeks I have a boil under both of  my armspit my oby told just to put warm water with cloth under and then put an antibacterial ointment I did it for few times it didn't do anything so I just stop doing it and I ask my oby again if I should go to hospital she told me to go if it bothers or if I'm having any  kinda symptoms but i dnt feel anything its like  two lil balls she told me there is nothing she can do about it. But it bothers me a lot not like pain or anything but it makes me feel blahh-; ( and now im 33 weeks and it's still there I can't really wear my cute maternity dresses that I have I always worried about covering this shiit and my baby shower is coming up and I want to wear a slip less dress so I'm just thinking to go to the hospital even thoe it doesn't bother me just to see what the doc tells i mean idnt know so im just wondering if anybody had this experience plz share thanx

I do exfoliate but I shave at least once a week thanx for your advice I appreciated.

You can have a boil and it never shows a head, especially in the armpits.  I get boils all the time but I have reduced them occuring.

1. You have to stop shaving. Waxing reduces the occurance of boils but they can still occur.
2. Exfoliate your underarms. It hurts when u have a boil.
3. Soak a tea bag in boiling  hot water and apply tea bag to boil. Do this 3-4 times a day. This helps kill bacteria.
4. Ask your doctor for an antibiotic.  It will help fight the infection.
5. If you keep getting boils after all the above steps, your deoderant can be an issue.  Certain deodorants agitate my underarms causing boils

Thanx I'm Goin to try that or go to the hospital and maybe they can  take it out there

Put a hot wash cloth on it and Epson salt, let it sit on it after a couple days it will start to drain and u should be able to get rid of it.

If they haven't popped yet there probably not boils. They hurt and get big and they will start getting like white head on it. and the it will pop and its pus and blood it should do that with warm compression
