Should I Get Allergy Tests To Diagnose Lumps In Armpits?
Hi,
My sister and I both get fatty big lumps under our arms in our armpits which grow with the menstrual cycle and then get smaller after my period. She is getting hers removed as they have become quite large and dark colored. If they are removed will the deposit come back elsewhere? Or just back into the armpit?
Is it just something in our diet which can't be excreted and therefore stored? Should I get an allergy test done?
Thanks

Hi.
The tendency of the body to deposit lumps of fats in armpits or elsewhere is nothing to do with Allergy. Its directly related with metabolism of fats and some other factors.
After surgery too there is no guarantee if would not re deposit at armpit or elsewhere.
If I were your doctor I had suggested you to take some Ayurveda medicine which is very successful in preventing such lumps such as Kanchnar guggul. As per individual history and current condition some other medicines are also combined.
Hope this answers your query.
