I have a bad rash and bumps under my armpit, it gets irritated when i apply deodorant. how can i fix this ?

Change deodorant: If you get an allergic reaction, which this sounds like, you can first change the deodorant. From wet to dry or dry to wet. Also note that the heavier the scent from the deodorant, the more chemical is used to create that scent so the ones with the least scent are usually better for those who are sensitive to chemicals. Also you may take benadryl over the counter if it still itches.
