    ok so i started using a new deodorant awhile ago and it gave my armpits a rash and turned them REALLY dark ! I've used other deodorants and this has never happened to me EVER ! Note: I stopped using the deodorant immediatly . I have no pain or sickness from this just the DARK armpits , which wont go away i've scrubbed them many times with soap and water . And the rash has gone away but my armpits still slightly itch .

    PLEASE HELP HOW DO I GET MY ARMPITS BACK TO THEIR REGULAR COLOR ?

    scrubbing them is changing the color , stop using deodorent , gently clean your pits with soap and water 3 times a day , you should be fine in a week or 2

    Hello,
    It can be due to contact dermatitis to the deodorant. You can take antihistaminics like Benadryl and Claritin. Corticosteroids and topical nasal steroids are also helpful in relieving the symptoms. More severe cases require oral corticosteroids and immunotherapy.

    I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and regards.
