Q: Red flaky rash in armpit area with weird odor

Not sure If im in the right section, but I used to sweat a lot from only one of my armpits. And then i just stopped sweating all of a sudden and then noticed a red rash under that same armpit that itches a liltte, not that bad, is red, a lil flaky with white residue, small pimples, and smells weird. Im not swearing from my other armpit either but do not have this problem there. Its been here about 2-3 weeks and itsnt getting worse or better.

Anyone have any input? I have since stopped using deodorant and bath daily as I always have. I have also had instances of chronolingic urticaria (hives) mainly from nervousness, stress, excitement, anxiety, heat etc.

Thx

Wow, the same thing happened to me. Do you have any information, because I'm wondering what it is as well?
