I have a pimple a little smaller than a pea and some other small ones in my armpit and the bigger one is painful what should i do?

Possible infection: A painful pimple under the arm can be an infected hair or gland. Try very warm wash clots to see if it will pop and if it gets bigger or does not go away then see your doctor who may prescribe a short time of antibiotics
