Serious answers only please! If you are a smart elec, please move on to the next question.

For about 2 months my underarms have been chemically burned and then peel every time I try to use deodorant. I even used a spray that is nothing but mineral salts and purified water and it STILL happened. To treat it, I mix olive oil and tea tree oil together and apply with a Q-tip. When it heals up, I try a different kind of deodorant. After the mineral salt, I am out of options. Any suggestions about what is causing this and what I can do?

I am extremely frustrated and trying to figure out what I can use so that I don't stink when warm weather hits again. :(

Thanks for any help you can give.

I would agree that a Candida infection is possible. I can't figure out why it would only come out when I put on deodorant though?

Moles, warts, and epidermis tickets are typical epidermis lesions that develop naturally. Even though they are generally non dangerous, they may be embarrassing if found on an obvious part like the face. Epidermis lesions like moles and warts cause self-confidence problems to the sufferers. An individual with moles normally becomes a loner because they don't really wish to be noticed in public. They feel embarrassed to be out in public areas, so despair may obviously follow but you can now change all of this with this specific guide from here https://tr.im/4PHSS , Moles, Warts and Skin Tags Removal eBook.

I assume its just the side effects of whatever deodorant you are using take the Homeopathic remedy SULFUR in 200 potency for three days while discontinuing the use of your deodorant and feel the difference :-). Your sweat smell can be eliminated without any side effects or complications if you can describe you symptoms apart from sweat smell what else health issues do you have and how they make you feel are the key symptoms in treating and curing you 100% without side effects or complications of any kind.
Take Care and God Bless you !

Have you tried to use a powder with zinc in it? Zinc is a good antibacterial and should help keep the odor down. Check out the powders in the baby aisle, especially the ones that are made for diaper rash. There is one powder that I like that is in a round pink container, I just can't recall the name at the moment, sorry. Do you have a natural health store near you. Talk with the people that run it and see if they have any suggestions. I know that the Tom's brand of natural hygiene products are good and maybe one of them will help and not irritate your underarms.

If you want to follow everyones advice that it may be a yeast infection, before you start treating yourself for this go to your search bar and type in "sypmtoms of yeast infection in arm pits" and read the sites where you will get the definition and the characteristics of the appearance of the infection. Site #1 - Intertrigo - Yeast Infections in Skin Folds is a good site with the information on this that is easy to understand. If this is what you have then go ahead with the treatment of using an antifungal cream. If this does not sound like the rash that you are getting I recommend that you see a dermatologist. Good Luck!

I used to have this same problem. I now use a deodorant that is free of proplyene glycol and it has worked very well for me. I have very sensitive skin under my arms, so I have to sometimes put lotion under my arms to keep the itching down.

Another idea that you can try is a product called "Body Mint." It is a tablet that you can take twice a day to keep your under arms and the rest of your body odor free. I used Body Mint for a long time, but I had to stop because it is very expensive. You may want to try this method.

You could have crabs...or you could be very sensitive to deodorant. Try using just plain cornstarch baby powder for a couple of days. After it clears up, then use a mild spray deodorant. Honestly, it sounds like u are allergic to the alcohol in the deodorant.

Nurdreams might be right, the same thing happened to my husband and his mom ( a nurse of 30 years) told him to spray the stuff for athletes foot on there and it went away. It was a yeast infection.

let your skin heal and breathe about 6 weeks and try again.
if it then doesnt work just quit using deodorant and just use soap and water.
cause this allergic is probably permanent. cause you are allergic to some of the chemicals used in the deodorant.
