I have been struggling with this for about 7 years now. I get these large cyst like pimples in my underarm. They are extremely painful and sometimes they last for 2 or 3 weeks at a time. Can anyone help me?
You could try switching to a different type of deodorant or don't use any at all.

Also, a dermatologist could inject the cysts with cortisone to make them heal up faster.

I used to get very painful pimple/cysts in my armpits. After doing some research I cut back on red wine and strong black tea. I haven't had any new ones since. Think it is a sensitivity to tanins. I now steep my tea quickly, the tanins only leach out after a few minutes.. Apparently un oaked white wine is okay, tannins are in a lot of things. Check it out...I got some good info from a blog by Melanie Anne Phillips
