What Causes Lumps In The Underarms And Rashes On The Neck?

some weeks back I developed this rash on my neck. I assumed it was heat rash especially when I noticed small bumps going from underarm down to thumb. Applied cortizone 10 and it seemed to help. Now however it reappears when my body temp gets heated in the exact same places on my neck. Now I alternate with benadryl cream & pills. I also applied witch hazel on it. Today as long as i kept ice on it, it does nt itch and not as red. Someone said it may be related to menopause since i m suffering horribly with flashes and nights sweats.

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi,Dear,
Thanks for the query to HCM. I studied your problem in depth and I understood your concerns.
Causes for lumps in underarms and rashes on neck-
In your case the cause is -menopause with hot flushes.
This is because of the hormonal imbalances at this age.
This advise is based on the facts from the history you give and needs further clinical check.
So don't build up wrong concepts and create more psychic complications in you which would increase risks and costs to you, but just ask a query to HCM and be comfortable to resolve your health issues.
Welcome for any more query in this regard to HCM.
Write good resume and Click thanks if you feel satisfied with my advise.
