Weird question about armpit?

Yes... Most times it happens because of the type of deodorant you are wearing... It is having a Reaction to your skin... Plus you have limp nodes there too which can become infected if you don't treat it...Swollen and filled with puss...

When my buddy went to the dr. they told him in the early stages... Just stop wearing deodorant for a few days and change your brand while you are at it. make sure to shower every day and clean it(like they have to tell you) and it should go away in a few days...

You don't want to know what happens to you if you don't treat it...

I know you might stink for a few days but its for the best long term.. and its nothing you did so don't feel bad... just a reaction, can happen to anyone...
 
Yes, if it's itchy and sore it's probably an infected hair follicle. Have you recently shaved? You may be either allergic to the shaving cream or your razor may have been too dull, or you are allergic to the deodorant you're using. and irritated your skin. Put some vitamin E oil on it and try to keep the area dry. Use baby powder until the irritation goes away.
 
Yes, you can get bacterial or fungal infections under there. Is it reddish looking too?

I had an issue like you describe. I went to see a dermatology doc and he prescribed a drug called Alcortin. It's a gel that you rub on. It worked for me!
 
That depends. Is the area red, or bumpy? Do you shave? Cause I know sometimes if you get an ingrown hair, it can cause a great amount of itch and pain. If it is, there isn't much you can do besides wait it out, and be more careful next time you shave.

If it isn't though, can you give a little more information?
 
As long as it is not swollen or lumpy which if it is you should see a doctor. If just itchy and red I would think you are having an allergic reaction to your deodorant. Change deodorants or none at all and see if it goes away. Good luck.
