A burning or painful sensation in your armpits could be because of these reasons:
Deodorant rash: If you’re experiencing a rash or burning feeling in your armpits after you apply deodorant, it could be an allergic reaction. Make sure to wash off the deodorant thoroughly to prevent it from getting worse.
Infected lymph nodes: Pain in the armpits along with a small lump could indicate an inflamed lymph node. This is often a sign of a fungal or bacterial infection, hence you should visit your doctor.
Ingrown hairs: These occur when a hair follicle grows sideways into the skin. This may lead to the growth of boils or armpit pimples that are red and painful to touch.
