for nearly four years now but last time I had my underarms done it was really

really painful and I was left very bruised after. It was so bad that I have now

stopped getting my underarms done. Eyebrows are still fine.

Hi there

Unfortunately the pain threshold does change with thyroid dysfunction and so does the skin - it is actually safer not to have the underarms done as your lympth glands are in the arms.

I had problems with my dental procedures - I had to have about 6 injections to numb me and also facials with electrical stimulation that I had enjoyed and tolerated would make me scream with pain and I had to stop having them.

So yes it is your thyroid disorder causing this.

Best wishes
