Hello,
Thanks for the concern. According to history you may suffer from folliculitis in armpit. It is bacterial infection of hair follicles with causes pus formation. For symptomatic relief you may do warm compresses and take painkillers. For curing the bacterial infection you should take oral antibiotics for 7 days under guidance of your treating physician.
