Hello doctors i just waxed under my armpit and a red patch remained ..is there any natural cure?

Irritant dermatitis : It sounds like you've developed an irritant dermatitis. Usually over the counter Hydrocortisone 1% cream can help within 1 week. Use unscented soaps only. If not improving, see a physician.
