Does miradry cause cording in the armpit area? Will a steroid shot get rid of it?

September 3, 2017
Asked By:amhunte

I haven't had any surgery besides this. I iced religiously and waited 2 weeks to work out. It appeared 2 days after the workout. I'm wondering if this is a rare side effect and what procedures to get rid of it
