I have noticed my armpits have some pimple looking bumps and it's been making me insecure.
What's weird though is one side is worse than the other
Normal or not?
It's totally normal it's from irritation or ingrown hairs, shaving.. i had them for years Then began using Dove deodorant and now it's as smooth as baby's bottom
they might be ingrown hairs, whenever i get one ya there is some stuff that comes out but on the other hand they might also be heat bumps i get them during the summer time when im not really moving my arms soooo ask a doc just to be sure
i get em on the side of my upper arms but they arent really visible. But when you rub my skin there its bumpy.
Small bumps that aren't pimples on the sides of your arms, may be redder than surrounding skin, almost always there or are more obvious in the winter? May also be on your thighs?
Google "keratosis pilaris". Not saying you got it, but better to mention it now & let you ask your doctor than let you keep wondering (p.s. its harmless)
Ingrown hairs from not exfoliating. It's COMPLETELY normal. Start exfoliating more often (i use a loofah in the shower & scrub really well, works for me but you might need an exfoliating body wash if they continue). Keep antibiotics on them, let them work out or take a sharp pair of tweezers to work them out if they get too bad.
Google about ingrown hairs to find out more.
I've had them before. Those aren't pimples, I don't know what they are. You've got to squeeze them out.
I have a feeling you're like 9 and you're growing armpit hair's just now. Call me crazy, but you're crazy. lol
I get pimples on my elbows and the back of my head. They're common and honestly not something that you should feel insecure about.
I used to get those when I had irritation from my deodorant. Switch the deodorant to something natural, see if it helps. If not, see a doctor.
