Hi,thanks for the query to my HCM virtual-CLINIC.
-In my opinion-You are suffering from-
-mostly-armpit boil ,which is with lump in the beginning and now pointing with redness.
-Consult your family doctor / and skin doctor and investigate to fix the cause of it.
-Remedy-Would be with -
-Tb-NSAID-for 5 days time
-Antibiotic with advise from your family doctor for 5 days time.
-If no reduction then a Surgeon would do the I & D with proper aseptic precautions.
