Hi,
You should avoid using a deodarant directly to your under arm skin, avoid shaving or waxing the area for some time. These could be the cause of your symptoms.
Try to avoid sweat accumulation at the sites and use a powder. Keep the area clean and wear lose, comfortable clothes.
Since when have you noticed the lesion?
This could be some insect bite, eczema or bacterial skin infection or dermatitis.
You could take oral antihistamine medications for the itching and apply calamine lotion at the site.
It would be best to consult a skin specialist as nothing can be said with surety without having a look at the lesions.
Let us know about what the doctor advises and post us if you have any other doubts.
Regards.
Hello. Over the last couple of days I've devoloped a rash under my right arm. They kind of look like heat pimples but have minor itching and is slowly spreading. Was wondering if anyone can give advice to what this may be and recommend some sort of treatment.
Hi,
Its very difficult to know what these could be with the description that you have provided. However, such lesions are usually a fungal infection called Tinea Corporis and may need an evaluation and treatment from a doctor. This is to make sure that this does not spread any further.
Either ways, you should maintain hygiene and take OTC anti-allergics to prevent excessive itching at the site which may complicate the lesions further due to secondary infections. You should talk your doctor and find out a clear diagnosis and treatment for the condition.
Best regards.
