Minoxidil lumps

Asked for Male, 29 years

I've been using minoxidil for a month and have lumps under my left armpit. They don't hurt but they are hard. Is this normal?

Dear Patient,

I'm sorry to hear that. What did you use minoxidil for? How much longer will you use it for? Did you have any skin infection in your left armpit from before?
Just observe these lumps once a week, notice if they are growing in size or number, is there any infection near them? If yes then kindly see a general surgeon for some anti-inflammatory medication for these.
