Ever since January, I've been getting this itchy irritation under my armpit. Sometimes it get's so itchy that it becomes a rash after I scratch it. It comes and goes every 2 weeks and it's always at the same location. It's really unattractive and I'm afraid it'll leave scars.
I tried stop using deodorant but the irritation always seems to come back. It usually happens when I'm sweaty or hot. I tried using this anti-itching cream and it helps but then after a couple of weeks, it comes back. Now it's starting to get my face and I'm not sure what to do.
What's wrong with my skin? It has never happened before. Help!
