Itching, burning, irritation… Feeling this type of sensation in the armpit area is very unpleasant. Several factors can be the cause of this skin discomfort. We take stock.
Irritation under the armpits: when should you worry?
Feel a slight irritation under the arms is not uncommon: heat, perspiration, friction can cause a skin reaction… more or less temporary! But if the unpleasant sensation persists, if local redness or oozing is observed, this may be a sign of deterioration of the skin barrier and it is then necessary to consider treatment or the implementation of a routine to treat this. intertrigo in the armpits. Most often, red patches result from bacterial infection or a allergic reaction but the causes are not always easy to determine and poor treatment can make things worse (such as the use of an allergenic deodorant if we believe that intertrigo is due to a bacterial infection), hence the interest to refer it to a health professional.
What skin disease can cause underarm irritation?
Irritation under the arms can be a symptom of many ailments. The development of irritation in the armpits can in particular be attributed to:
- a skin disease
- eczema,
- you psoriasis
- fungi, which are rarer, can be the cause of mycosis in the armpits. The development of microscopic fungi is favored by the fact that the area, humid and warm, is the ideal environment. Being very contagious, armpit fungus are transmitted through contact with an already infected person or with contaminated objects.
The most difficult thing when you feel a burning armpit is often determining the origin of this reaction. Especially since the symptoms are very similar, it is not uncommon to confuse different ailments such as fungal infections and eczema in the armpits. If you tend to have irritated armpits often, or even regularly, it is better to consult a doctor who will be able to unequivocally determine the origin of the irritation and find the appropriate treatment.
What can cause underarm inflammation?
In addition to a skin disease, several factors can explain the appearance and promote the development of itching and burning sensation in the armpits, such as:
- The heat : perspiration and friction often cause small redness,
- THE chemical allergies : chemicals (such as those found in household cleaners, soap, perfume, etc.) can damage the skin,
- Shaving and/or depilatory wax : done too often, hair removal weakens the skin of the armpits,
- L’obesity : as the skin is in contact all the time, this generates friction and maceration which will damage the armpit,
- Hygiene failing or excessive : too many products, too much showering… and vice versa affect the armpits,
- A transpiration excessive,
- A hairiness significant can cause maceration at this level.
What products should you avoid when you have fragile armpit skin?
In a survey for the Venus brand by Gillette, 42% of women confirmed having redness in the sensitive area of the armpits! When you are often subject to irritation and redness in this area, it is important to protect your armpit and avoid traumatizing her. The right reflexes when you have sensitive or weakened armpits?
- Use a mild soap,
- Space out shaves,
- Limit the armpit hair removal to the maximum,
- Beware of perfumes,
Lit’s perfume can cause contact eczema, like the alcohol contained in deodorants… We choose our deodorant with great care.
- Avoid drying products… unless you have excessive sweating,
- Favor loose clothing.
Their advantage? Loose clothing does not cause chafing in the armpit.
To properly treat theunderarm intertrigoit is necessary to determine its precise origin.
When it is not a skin disease, you can relieve an irritated armpit by using:
The application of a nourishing and not very drying healing cream will gently calm the inflammation of the armpit skin. Before applying it, we check the composition to ensure that it does not contain alcohol, otherwise it might worsen the inconvenience.
- a warm, moist compress
Applying a warm, moist compress to the irritated area will provide a feeling of rapid relief. The solution is temporary but it can provide real comfort in cases of intense itching.
If the irritation persists, see a doctor remains the best solution.
To reduce itching and limit inflammation, we favor neutral, natural and, above all, alcohol-free care:

Fedecom’s concern about the “excessive” increase in supplier prices
written by Alexandra Hartman Editor-in-Chief
2023-12-20 20:59:06
The Trade Federation of the Province of Córdoba (Fedecom), representing the more than 100 thousand associated businesses in the Province, expressed this Wednesday its concern regarding the excessive price increase by some suppliers.
The sector warns that in its role as intermediary it is today suffering from speculation by some companies that, despite having already modified the price list during the month of December, continue to apply increases well above the devaluation.
From Fedecom they understand that they are not price makers and that this situation will only generate a greater drop in consumption. In addition, they emphasize that the increases not only affect the customer’s pocket, but also endanger the jobs of commercial employees and the merchants themselves.
As a representative entity of the sector and knowing the situation of small businesses that “today are victims of this speculation that forces them to transfer it to the consumer, we urge our associates to redouble their efforts and look for suppliers who do not seek to take advantage of the current scenario.”
The entity called on small businesses in the sector to “redouble their efforts and look for suppliers who do not seek to take advantage of the current scenario.”

Liège University Hospital and Citadelle Hospital Merger: Creating a Center of Excellence
written by Alexandra Hartman Editor-in-Chief
2023-12-20 16:50:00
On December 21, 2022, the boards of directors of the Liège University Hospital and the Citadelle hospital validated the hospital group project proposed by the general management. A year later, within a day, “the marriage contract is signed”.
In fact, the two CAs unanimously signed the CHU-Citadelle group agreement. Concretely, “it’s regarding structuring our already existing synergies to create a single large hospital,” explains Jean-Pierre Hupkens, president of the Citadelle board of directors. “It is the creation of a care center which will make it possible to drain all the patients from the Liège basin,” adds Philippe Boxho, his counterpart at the University Hospital.
The Liège University Hospital and the Citadelle hospital are joining forces.
“Excellent news” for the two institutions, which will unite under the same name (not yet known) and share a single direction.
For the patient, “it is also a real plus”, insists Philippe Boxho. Both from an administrative and pragmatic point of view, since he “will no longer have to, among other things, run everywhere to obtain quality care, everything will be centralized”. Grouping of doctors, grouping of patients, grouping of surgical interventions, or even grouping of sites, this “center of excellence” will offer a large-scale medical offer, “including for rare or acute diseases”, in “the one of the largest university hospitals in the country”.
With the “triple scarcity of doctors, nurses and financial resources”, joining forces “is a necessity, declares the president of the Board of Directors of the CHU, because “creating a center of excellence in the field of health increases funding” . “A larger entity inevitably means a greater number of pathological cases to treat, which will further convince political authorities to support us financially, while emphasizing our expertise,” he explains.
CHU and Citadelle: “This is not a merger”.
If the Boards of Directors are in favor, it remains to convince the Medical Councils. The medical negotiations, “which had already resulted in numerous compromise points, will continue, under the aegis of two mediators responsible for endorsing a general agreement”. “We are giving ourselves two years for the doctors to come to an agreement,” announces Jean-Pierre Hupkens. After which the grouping will not be effective.
“But the staff wants it to happen”, concludes Philippe Boxho, who admits that the task “will not be easy, but that we will get there, since the will is there”.
