I have red pimples on my armpits and they are swollen and hurt. Is there anything I can do?

Hello Ma'am,

The first thing to do is to completely stop applying antiperspirant or deodorant, and do so for a minimum of 7 days.

We will avoid applying anything to the skin for those 7 days. We will also avoid rubbing the skin too hard while showering, to avoid feeding the inflammation.

If nothing changes after 7 days, we will have to consult. If on the contrary it improves, resume the deodorant only when the skin is completely healed.

Good day,

Alexandre Chagnon, pharmacist
