Pain under the armpit help

I know this is best to ask the doctor but it's 10pm and my HS is so bad under my arm. It's always leaking and it stings and itches what do I do??? Any home remedies I'm tired of living like this.

  1. Hi! I'm so sorry that you're having such a difficult time, I'm sure you'd love to get some uninterrupted sleep! I've used both Vick's Vape-o-rub as well as witch hazel to help calm down the symptoms. I also keep Manuka honey (which can be purchased as Medihoney or First Honey in sterilized form); Manuka honey kills a wide spectrum of bacteria and can be used to heal both broken skin and on anything brewing below closed skin. I'm hoping other members will see your message and give you other suggestions, and you can also search key words to see what comes up in the articles. I'm attaching an article written by our regular staff with more ideas. I hope you can get more relief soon, am sending you some healing thoughts! ~Chelsea (Team Member) https://hsdisease.com/home-remedies
