Answer 2

No, infections caused by viruses and bacteria make you sick. I don't imagine something like toothpaste in the armpit would help matters any, but that wouldn't be a direct cause, more like a contributing factor. You get a fever because the body is trying to limit the gerbie numbers, it's a first line defense of the immune system. The body cells function well at higher temperatures, gerbies don't. While I don't recommend putting strange items in your armpits, it won't make you sick any more than going outside in the cold or getting your feet wet does. It's still bacteria and viruses - not stuff like onions and toothpaste.
