I know exactly how you feel. I've had the same problem. First, remember that nobody's perfect. Then go out and buy a product called Bikini Zone. It has AHA in it that prevents the bumps in the first place. Then, if you really can't stand the appearance of your underarm skin, look for something that fades scars, like Bio Oil. It's not an overnight fix, but it really will help. Oh, and don't squeeze them! It makes the scarring worse!

You should get that checked out.

With epilators, you have to be careful about ingrown hairs. That's what I think is causing your bumps. You need to regularly exfoliate with a loofah sponge or a body scrub to get rid of the dead skin cells so your trapped hairs can come to the surface and be tweezed off. That said, still, get that pus checked out. That sounds like an infection!
