Switched from antipersp deodorant to natural 1mo ago. having swollen painful nodes in arm pits, discoloration, rash,etc. tried tonsof different brands?

Contact dermatitis: Hi, thanks for the question. It seems like you developed a rash in the area where you applied the deodorant. If this is indeed the case, you likely have an allergy to the deodorant. The reaction is called contact dermatitis, meaning irritation where the deodorant touches your skin. The main solution is to stop using the offending chemical or product. Hope that helps!
