What Are The Pimple Like Rashes Under My Armpit, Knees, Outer Thighs And Back? They Are Not Razor Bumps
i have a pimple like patches of rash underneath my armpit, on my upper outer thigh, underneath my knee and in a small area of my back. I just recently had a bad allergic reaction to my deodorant but it wasn t anything more than inflamed skin. and i don t think they are razor bumps because i haven t shaved my armpits because of the inflammation and i just haven t shaved my legs in a while. Do you have any recommendations or conclusions of what it may be? thanks

Hi, welcome to the forum. With this presentation, I would have two options in my mind. The first possibility is a skin inflammation called Intetrigo which tends to occur in warm, moist areas where skin surfaces rub or press against each other. The second option would be scabies. An argument to support the latter would be skin itches in the person with whom you sleep. In my opinion, I think you should consult a general practitioner or dermatologist for confirmation.
