Answers:
check out hidradenitis suppurativa , it mainly starts in maturing adults but I personally know of a 18 month old who had it!. IT could be staph!. I would ask the doc and ask for a referral to a dermotoligst!. If you get nowhere, print out some stuff on HS and take it with you the next time that you go!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
