Hidradenitis suppurativa (chronic collections of pus)

Inflammation, swelling and infection of the armpit, groin, buttocks or under the breast. Tender bumps develop and can turn into a collection of pus (abscess). The area is painful, warm to touch and can drain foul smelling yellow fluid. The inflammation begins after the sweat glands in the affected area become clogged allowing bacteria to infect the skin and sweat glands. Hydradenitis suppurativa usually begins after puberty and can be recurrent. If the condition is not treated chronic scarring and a surrounding skin infection can occur called cellulitis. Sometimes cellulitis can be life threatening.
