Hello and welcome to HCM,
recurrent boils in the armpit and near eye lids is suggestive of recurrent folliculitis.
Folliculitis is inflammation of the hair follicles and it occurs in regions with dense hair follicles like arm pit, pubic region etc.
Eye lids can also be affected by folliculitis.
Antibiotic treatment will be required to treat the infection each time infection recurs.
Recurrence of infection is commonly due to inadequate treatment and low immunity.
Thus, complete antibiotic course along with improvement of immune status will help to prevent infection in future.

Thanks and take care
