My armpits are really red, I'm not sure what its from but i think it might be from a shower gel I got from a friend for Christmas. So, I stopped using that, and my arm pits are less red but its still there on one pit. Also sometimes theres bumps on that armpit. What can I do to make this go away? Its really annoying.

Mine were very red and extremely itchy.
You may have sensetive skin, so switch to Dove sensetive skin soap. And for deotorant, try Dove sensetive skin, they have less chemicals than Secret and all those others.
If they doesn't help, go to the derm. She gave me this cream that made it clear up really well.
Brandi_S answered Sunday January 14 2007, 5:45 pm: Sounds like you have irritated skin. Stop using deodorant under the one arm for a couple days and give the rash a chance to heal. Deodorant doesn't help with the healing, and it even states not to use it on broken or irritated skin. [ Brandi_S's advice column | Ask Brandi_S A Question ]
