there are no bumps or anything so i doubt it has to do with cancer.. but obviously when i itch it it turns red.. but maybe its from my deodorant??

Switch off your deodorant, it's a rather common side-affect to certain chemicals in that stuff, if your using anti-perspirant, it probably contains Aluminum Zirconium Tetrachlorohyedrex, which often irritates the skin. I noticed someone mentioned the likelihood of cancer..... This is ridiculous, if you thought every itch, bump or hair was cancer then most of us would never leave the doctors office.

First of all I think you should switch deodorant because that might be causing the problem. Your armpit is probably having a reaction to it. One other reason is you could have gotten a bite from something there but there just isnt any mark but there could be a mark and you just cant see it like a little bump.

try not to scratch it too much.. you may be getting irritation from the deodorant.. try switching and see if that helps..

this itch could be caused by a fungus ,,or you could have lice under your armpits,,they are attracted to hair,,also a bump or boil would itch,,,,have it checked by a doctor,,,you could be having early cancerous symptoms
