A member asked:
Is it safe to use vaseline with ichthammol for the bumps under both my armpits?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes , qualified: It would be safe but vaseline could clog pores contributing to bumps. Ichthammol is anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory and might work better without vaseline.
