small pimple under arm with pus ?!
Question: Small pimple under arm with pus ?
Hi
I recently noticed a small pimple on my armpit and it felt like a little tiny ball . It kinda bothered me when I felt it but nothing serious and today before going in the shower i was touching it and it bugged me so i popped it and dry kinda yellow pus came out . It doesn't hurt but it had this unpleasant smell. It doesn't hurt but I'm just wondering what happened am I shaving too much ( because this came after shaving) is it serious did I do something wrong by popping it ? Thank you in advance !

It sounds like you had an ingrown hair that kina got out of control. My sis had something like that and she just put a hot towel on it. Then it surfaced and she popped it. Shaving can be caused by this most of the time, but everyone gets one at some point in their life. If it keeps coming back i would go see a doc. Maybe he can tell you what's causing it. Honestly though I wouldn't really worry about it if its gone :)
im not sure you should go to a doctor and let them check it out but i was you i wouldnt shave until you go to the doc
