Well I just switched anti-perspirant brands about 2.5 weeks ago.  I was originally using Speed Stick for 3 years but I decided I would give another brand a try because it wasnt working that well anymore.  I switched to Dove Sensitive Skin because I wanted something mild.  Well after 2.5 weeks of using it, I thought the product was fine and I got no irritation, but just recently my right underarm has a slight burning feeling.  I think I must have gotten a rash from the Dove.  I stopped putting on any antiperspirant on the skin until the rash goes away.  Does anyone know something I can put on the rash so it will go away faster?  It's a dry and brown spot on the corner of my armpit.  The corner of my chest is also burning a little.  I haven't changed my soap or anything like that when I changed antipersps.

Try putting baby powder under your arm and make sure to keep it cool and dry...the more sweat the worst it will get.

i'll tell you a secret, my friend had the same problem. if you go to your doctors and tell them they can prescribe you with a special deodrant that you can use on your armpits, hands and feet thats stops you sweating altogether. im trying to think what its called!! you put it on every other night and you don't need to use deodrant anymore. its brillant stuff, it's called anhydrol forte, go to your doctor and see what they say. good luck.

Allergies\n\nI have a son who is allergic to everything. He was about 8 months old when I started with Melaleuca. One by one I slowly tested each product. Melaleuca is the one thing I can use on him that works wonders! We use to buy 2-3 different types of laudry detergent because of allergies in my household. Now, it's only Mela Power. Renew Bath Oil and Renew Intensive Skin Therapy are awesome for any skin problems and I swear by that!  \nI know several people who have gotten off of their allergy medicine as well as inhalers after switching to Melaleuca. The first step is to get all of the harsh chemicals/toxins out of your home. Then get on the Daily for Life Pack and saturate with the Provex (1capsule/25 lbs per day for 2 weeks) Provex is a powerful antioxidant and is a natural anti-inflammitory and anti-histamine! It works wonderfully for allergies and asthma without the side effects of prescription medications! \nthat he got infections on his legs. The allergist that I went to put him on heavy cortisone, if I knew then what I know now I wouldn't have done it. That did clear him up but then it came back. Here's the great part.... within two weeks of TOTALLY converting our home to Melaleuca products, he was a different child. Attitude, everything. I am convinced that he felt miserable and (acted miserable) because of the allergies. Hallelujah!!!! The other story is about me, I was always allergic to Easter lilies, I have been taking ProvexCV and went in to the local store, saw the lilies and thought to myself, oh great here goes, my head is going to BLOW up. It didn't. I went over and sniffed, and then took in a big sniff and no blow up, and for any doubters, no the store hadn't pulled the centers out of the lilies! Hope these stories help, any questions, contact me at \nCV and I noticed my summer allergies were not as bad as they use to be... so it helped me too...

Can this be your first time with the product? Your skin became irritated. You didnt specify if you continued on using the product even though the rash was present. Im assuming you did continue because you said the rash did not go away. My suggestion is to stop using the product or use it once a day. If that does not work, try other products or a milder concentration of the product your are using. If you really need help, consult a dermatologist.

I am in the medical profession and I can tell you firsthand that you are not the only person who suffers from this kind of problem, and I am well aware it can be very embarrassing.  I have done some research on this topic and I remember reading people suggesting different things, like crystal deodorant sticks, etc.  But there is only one thing that I have found to actually work, and work well.  I was very skeptical at first, but was quickly proved wrong.\n\nThe product is called Odaban.  It's a spray that comes in a little bottle.  You spray it on at night to the area or areas that are affected by excessive sweating.  You aren't supposed to use very much of it, just one spray per area I think.  You can also spray the stuff onto a piece of cotton and apply it that way for a more controlled application.  There are more directions on the site for its use.  You don't have to use it every day once it starts working, you only need to use it once or twice a week to "maintain" its effects.  \n\nI'm not sure exactly how it works, but it does work, I promise.  You can use it on any area of the body, but don't get it in your eyes, and make sure you wash hands well after using it.  It is not very expensive.  I don't know where you live, but it's shipped from the UK.  Even with shipping it only costs $15.    \n\nI'm providing you with the link at the bottom.  The other link is one person who had a problem with hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating) talking about his experience with Odaban.  PLEASE at least give this stuff a try.  It is so worth it.  I have seen it work for other people.  In as little as a week you might not ever have to worry about this again.\n\nBest of luck to you.\n\nP.S.  Like the next poster said, don't listen to that person who said to stop drinking so much water.  Water is essential to your body, and drinking less water will not help you sweat less, it will just make you sick if you get dehydrated in the heat.

I have had eczema off and on my entire life so I can definitely synpathize.  PROTOPIC is the ointment my dermatologist gave me and it was the only medicine I have EVER used that got rid of it.  I had an extremely sever case of it on my hands, out of nowhere, and I found out that what was causing it to surface was that I was using scented lotions like from Bath and Body works.   The chemicals in perfumed lotions and creams causes the rash to surface and irritate your skin.  Ask your doctor if Protopic would be right for you, put it on the spots, and do not over medicate. Stay away from cleaning chemicals such as bleach, comic, items like this and scented lotions and soaps. Ivory is the best.  Hope this helps.

Get the anti-perspirant Certain Dri. You will never sweat from your underarms. Eliminates all odor. Has no smell. Has no residue so it does not stain your clothes at all. It is a roll on you can get at any drug store in the anti-perspirant section. You put it on at night. Go to sleep. Wake up and take a shower. The residue of the deoderant is gone, but you don't sweat or smell at all for a couple of days. And when I say you don't sweat or smell I mean it. I go to the gym and my shirt gets soaked except for under the arms. That is how well it works. I have used the product for over a decade, and have had no unhealthy skin responses from using it.

Mine peel sometimes and i was at the dermatologist for a rash which turned out to be ezxima (however thats spelled) and the cream that they perscribed for the rash on my legs I use sparingly on my nipples and it cleared right up. if they get dry i use a little again.\n\nIt most likely a reaction that will pass but try a sterioid cream, like cortizone or get something more intense prescribed by your doctor.\n\nand don't worry about it if its just the skin, the only time to worry is obviously if you feel a lump or if there is discharge.\n\ngood luck

Maybe you have sensitive skin. Be sure to always use a new razor, but in your case it will probably still irritate the skin. I would suggest letting it grow out and then prepare for pain...waxing! The results will last for weeks and hopefully you won't be red under the arm for more than a few hours.

Keep a record of not only what you eat but what you bath  with. My skin is very sensitive and my skin breaks out in a rash only in certain spots. It turned out to be the facial scrub I was using!! If you break out check your record to see if something new has been added or a change in products that you normally use.

If its been there for 1-2 weeks i would get it checked at the doctor.  You might need a hydrochoridisone cream, that will stop the inflammation and itching.  It could be a sweat/heat rash or an allergic reaction to a washing powder or soap?

(m)\n\nAvoid pungent foods such as onions, fish, garlic and spicy meals. These foods can be smelt in sweat and make it more noticeable.\n\nMalt vinegar is an old-fashioned remedy that might be worth a try. Apply some to your armpits at night. Wash it off in the morning and then use your normal deodorant/antiperspirant.\n\nCommercial antiperspirants. You have probably tried most commercial deodorants and antiperspirants, but check the labels and look for one with a different active ingredient. If you have heard a rumour about antiperspirants/deodorants and breast cancer, take a look at the section on Antiperspirants and breast cancer.\n\nShave your armpits. Hair holds sweat and gives the bacteria more to work on. \n\n20% aluminium chloride is the next thing to try if ordinary antiperspirants haven't done the trick, but it can damage clothing. It can be bought from the pharmacist (ask for Drichlor, Anhydrol Forte or Perspirex) and should be used as follows. \n\nBefore going to bed, wash and dry your armpits thoroughly. If you apply the solution to wet skin, a chemical reaction takes place that produces hydrochloric acid, which can irritate skin and tarnish jewellery. If necessary, use a hair dyer to ensure your skin is absolutely dry. \nApply the solution when you are lying down in bed. This sounds odd, but armpit sweating switches off when you lie flat, and the solution will be more effective if applied then. The solution works by passing into the openings of the sweat glands, causing them to swell up and block, but if sweat is pouring out of the glands when you apply the solution, it won't be able to get in. \nIt works best if the area is covered with plastic cling-film (food wrap). Unfortunately, the armpit is an awkward shape. Use tape (such as, Micropore, which you can buy from a pharmacy) to hold the plastic wrap in place, then put on a tight-fitting T shirt to help keep it in position. \nDon't apply the solution directly after shaving, or the skin may become sore. \nWash off the solution in the morning, and don't reapply until bedtime. \nIf it proves effective reduce the application to every other night, and then to once or twice a week. Don’t use it every day, because it can irritate the skin.

it sounds like a form of eczema.  go get some hydrocortizone cream from the pharmacy (they sell it over the counter).  it should help it clear up.  if it doesnt go away from that, you may need a stronger dose, which you can only get to a doctor.  also, since there are little heads in it, i would suggest something with a little sulfur in it.  that will help your body learn to fight it. \nbut, it may just be an allergic reaction to the soap you are using.  stop using the soap you have, and if that doesnt work, try the above suggestions.  if you have any more questions, feel free to IM or message me.  good luck

Sorry can't help you with that, I've never worn one, but I suggest using a new, sterile one, and getting that rash checked out.  Perhaps buy a smaller, or bigger, one so it doesn't rub or irritate the skin.  But what do I know, I'm a girl!

Switch to aveno brand soaps,and you need a better moisturizer,i will suggest eucerin it is thick and works great. I am sure you are just having a dry skin episode.You also should increase your water intake which will help your skin regain itys moisture. I would nt relate your itchiness after masturbation to having a dry skin problem. Probably your body is just more relaxed which allows you to feel that your itching more then before you masturbated.

I have not sweated under my arms for over ten years since starting to use this product, and nothing else was able to stop the sweat.

I used to have the same problem.  You can Go to the doctor and get a prescription for an antiperspirant that you would would apply at night.  I noticed results within a few days.  I think it closes the pores in your underarm area so that you  don't sweat so much.  Truthfully it was a but strong for me and irritated my uinderarm skin-dry and itchy.  So I moved on to an over the counter product called 'Certain-Dri' .  It was awesome.  I didn't have to use it everynight after about a week-more like every other night.  You can find it at any pharmacy.  It might be on the shelves outside the pharmacy or inside so you might have to ask for it.  If they don't have it they can order it from their supplier.  They'll know exactly what it is.
