I have a history of hidradentitis supporativa. I have had painful cysts in my armpit before but this time it is a lot worse. It has gotten worse overnight, no drainage and very painful. It has gotten to the point where I can t really lift my arm. Do I go to the ER or wait for it to drain? What are the risks involved?
