May be normal: Arm pits itch usually but it does in access could be due to sweating or clothing or rubbing. Unless there is any excoriation or injury, you will be fine if your hygiene is good.

Several possible...: ...Causes. Could be from perspiration, shaving, eczema, or reaction to antiperspirant/deodorant, or infection (less likely). See a doctor if persists or worsens. Good luck!
