So, a while ago I noticed minor itching under my armpit but didn t really see anything wrong with my armpit. Well recently I developed a rash under my armpit. At first it was mild discomfor but now its becoming more aggressive and im experiencing constant itching or burning and I have really sensitive huge red bumps covering the whole inside of my armpit. Its starting to spread rapidly and I need to know what to do.
Hello, Thanks for the query, You might have developed fungal infection. Your description matches with that. Usually fungal infections are itchy and recurrent. Please get a KOH mount done, This can confirm the fungal etiology. Treatment can be with oral antifungals as well as with topical antifungals. Treatment must be continued for at least a month to prevent recurrance. Please meet a dermatologist for exact diagnosis. Let me know if you have any other doubt. you can ask a direct question to me on this forum, following the below link. http://www.healthcaremagic.com/doctors/dr-rahul-kumar/64818 Wishing you a good health.
