What Could Be The Bump Under Arm Pit Which Is Smelly?
HI, YESTERDAY WHEN SHOWERING I REALIZED A BUMP WAS UNDER MY ARM....IT HURTS REALLY BAD AND WHEN I SQUEEZE IT THERES A SMELL TO IT. MY PROFESSOR ALWAYS SAID IF YOU HAVE A SMELL TO A BUMP THEN SOMETIMES ITS NOT GOOD. I HAVE NO OTHER CONDITIONS SUCH AS A FEVER OR FEELING SICK, JUST AN ARMPIT THAT HURTS

Hello dear, Welcome to healthcaremagic. I have read your query and understood your concern.
It seems that you have suffering from a condition and folliculitis/ furuncle.
These are infectious conditions due to bacterial infection.
For this, you may need topical antibiotic cream with or without oral antibiotics.
I will advice you to visit your doctor in person for proper examination.
Stay healthy.
