I disagree. What has been described above is not keratosis pilaris.
Even if you know is caused by antipersprent but it never goes away and it is bothersome. no pain but bug me i was just thinking of contacting my Dr.. bc i cant get it to clear up. Thank you for your post
This just happened to me for the first time about 15 minutes ago. When I squeezed what looked to be a hair bump underneath my left armpit, a thick substance, much like everyone else has described to be a deodorant consistency, came out. I kept a squeezing until a long chunk about 2 inches long came out. It had hairs in it the were way too long to be armpit hairs. Also there were a bunch of hairs which has me confused. I'm super freaking out about this. It's so abnormal. Someone please post if you've gotten an answer about this
Do you take a medicine with sunset yellow in it?
Morgellons disease,search for it
Wondering how you would medically diagnose someone who doesn't use those products?
I only have this issue in one armpit and it smell is like gym shoes. I am not a heavy sweater and I drink lots of water. There is no signs of any lumps. I never wear deodorant or antiperspirant. Nor do I wear body spray or perfume. I use regular white dove soap and I always make sure I have washed all the soap away.

Do not attempt to squeeze them out. I did that years ago and my hair follicles are damaged. Now I live with Hidradenitis and it's not something you want. It really screwed up my armpits
i was playing with my phone and i felt something painful on my armpit . i took a look and there was like a big blackhead thing . i squeased it and i saw something white . im creeping out . i tried squeasing all of it out but there is still a little bit left . ughh im freaking out .
Same here! Recently, I squeezed it and I believe it to be deodorant coming out, and then I can see like a light colored looking thin strip and when I pull it out a long hair comes out like it's already been plucked, I didn't have to pull hard for it to come out. It literally just comes out. So gross, after I pulled out like 2 the next day it got irritated and it's been bugging me, it's stiff and uncomfortable. It happens like that sometimes and then it goes away so I don't really think it's anything serious just very uncomfortable! I thought I was the only one too!! Omg lol
My doctor said it was a hairball he numbed it cut it took the little pocket out and it hasn't come back. And it did stink really bad with the deodorant consistency
Sounds like Hidradenitis suppurativa aka Acne Inversa
My dr said it was diabetes related. Excess blood sugar being passed through the sebaceous glands. She said males tend to present on their backs and women in their arm pits. I get it every time my blood sugar is not controlled and as soon as I get it back down it goes away.
I never use deodorant but i have this.
Use epsom salt (follow directions on box) to make a warm compress under you arm for 10 minutes 2-3 times a day. It brings all the nasty to the surface. And makes lumps drain.
Yeah I had the same long hair thing too! Seems really weird but I'm glad I'm not the only one hahahaha
