Need help understanding what this skin problem is

[Jollyrogers_cookin]

My skin just started to break open under my armpit area last week and then it healed up and went away, just a couple nights ago, I got the same thing agian and this time it got bigger, it appears as a small red dot, like a zit per se, but the middle part of the red spot is skin and it rips open like a blister, like a burn blister sorta, I thought it could be a form of a stretch mark or something, I also used a tad bit of AMCINONIDE 0.1% cream on it for a couple days, its for getting rid of rashes, such as topical dermatitis, maby that made it wrose? or maby that caused it to break open into something else that made it worse, but I am not sure, could it be a crazy growth spurt or really stretched skin?

One thing that is strange, its only my right armpit area, my left had a couple spots but they went away, Im thinking also it could be from shaving the pits too and I am getting ingrown hairs.

Also Im on a cycle of these PH's

19-Nor-5-Androstenedione: 100mg
5-Androxydiol: 100mg
Dehydroepiandrosterone: 50mg

But I dont think that has anything to do with it, I have taken it before, I am on my 5th day of my second cycle, only thing I can say as far as negs go with this stuff, is acne and my hair on my head is slighty falling out .. a bit ..lol


here is a picture I took today with my PC cam ... nothing tooo bad but I just dont want it getting bigger you know...

did you recently just change the type of deodorant that you use? if so, it could just be a rash from that. if not, dunno. get it checked out

That's looks like a rare form of flesh eating bacteria scarring. J/K. Was probably an infected ingrown hair and you shaved on it which agravated it which caused it to scab and ya shaved it and it peeled off some of the skin. Honestly, unless you visited some third world country recently or have aids, I wouldn't stress it too much. Just keep it clean and don't shave till it goes away. On the other hand, it never hurts to have a doctor look at it, but he'd probably tell you the same thing. Also don't use deodorants/anti-perspirants in that armpit till it goes away. That's just what I'd do.

Might be psoriasis or seborrheic dermatitus. If you are using a roll on deoderant try switching to spray or vice versa. You may want to hold off on using anything for a good week.

Does it flake at all?

Well today all the red spots are going away, that big red mark is still red and not getting any bigger at least from where the dead skin stops .. I been putting on antibiotic cream and it seems to have eased the pain and is helping it heal. I dont use allot of deoderants, my pits dont sweat allot or smell allot, lucky me huh .. and no its not dry or flaking at all.

Im thinking that AMCINONIDE cream i used did this to me, cause it has mild topical steroid properties, I used it to get rid of a few dots, maby it made them split open because of the thin skin ...


here is what it looks like now

Seborrheic dermatitis = "dandruff" in other spots other than the head. It's not that
I've never heard of anyone geting psoriasis just underneath one armpit.
This goes the same for eczema.

I would say irritant dermatitis is a closer bet since it's only around the armpit area. Your anti perspirant has "iritated" the skin.
I would suggest you get a skin prick test because people develop allergies. You may be having a reaction to a chemical in the anti-perspirant, so the anti-perspirant should be changed at once.

A hydrocortisone cream called "locoid lipocream" is better then sliced bread for eliminating rashes. It's also real good for feet. Guys got that crusty shit on the bottom thier feet and the heel from not lotioning. Locoid clears that too.

Ya, it definitely looks like it's getting bigger. I don't use anti-perspirants/deodorants at all except when I go out which isn't that often lol.

That actually smart , but not socially acceptable. The chemicals in over the counter hygiene products contain harmul chemicals. Some people cannot was iwth certain bars of soap for the same reason. National Allergy Supply http://www.natlallergy.com/allergy/...tid/21/page/Hypoallergenic_Bath_Products.html
Has a whole section on hygiene products that are designed without colors fragrances or harmful chemicals so that people with sensitive skin can use them.

His problem is more common then you think.

You can get it under just one armpit or anywhere else on your body for that matter. Locoid also works will for seborrheic derm., but needs a prescription. I say if it gets worse you should see a dermatologist.
