How Should Armpit Lumps With Night Sweating Be Treated?
My husband is 40 yrs old. He has had two courses of Kelfex to treat the pea size lumps under his armpits. they are still there and he has night sweats all the time...what else could this be besides hidradenitis? Should I take him back again since they didn't go away with this course of Keflex?

HI,Dear,Welcome to HCM.
Based on the facts and data of your query,you seem to have night sweats from Hideradenitis.
Your Keflex treatment is not effective,hence I would suggest you,-Instead of treating with keflex,Consult a Surgeon and plan for its excision under antibiotic cover.
This would resolve your problem totally.
So Don't Worry at all.Consult on these lines and if need be treat it according to Suggestions of your Surgical specialist doctor.
Hope this reply would help you to resolve your sever anxiety.

Will appreciate writing your feedback review comments,to help the needy patients like you at HCM.
