A member asked:
Sore armpit. but no visible rash. no redness. no skin peeling. can i apply otc neosporin (antibiotic ointment for 5 days)?

You can apply neosporin ointment but if there are no signs of infection-redness, pus, swelling, etc., then it is unlikely to help. You should see your doctor to find out why you are sore since there are other reasons besides infection. Good luck to you!
