Has anyone has a painful bump in your armpit that comes and goes? I went to urgent care for it once and it was deemed as follicularitis and given antibiotics but it comes and goes and I’m getting bad anxiety for it

      It happens :( Sometimes when you shave the hair has a possibility of growing in wrong and getting stuck. I think it can happen without shaving too. I haven’t tried a way to prevent it yet, ive just dealt w it and either popped and destroyed it or tried my best to leave it

      Yes sometimes it gets bad and becomes an actual gross whitehead and sometimes its stays deep in the skin or its got a dark head or its just red and not happy. I hope u dont get any more any time soon!

      Oh thanks!! Yeah it’s like under the skin and don’t look like anything is there it’s so weird but it definitely is just making me so anxious makes me think it’s serious but I feel like I’m over thinking it 😮‍💨 my bf says he gets them too but not as often as I do
