What Causes Dark Brown Color Pimple On The Armpit?
There is a single dark brownish pimple on my right armpit. Whenever I pop it white stuff comes out then the water comes out. Eventually my armpit hair that has been growing inside comes out and it looks like it was stuck there for a long time due to the length. What is going on??

Hi, welcome to HCM,
As per your description it looks like hidradenitis suppurativa.
It is a chronic skin condition that features pea-sized to marble-sized lumps under the skin.
Treatments includes oral as well as topical antibiotics.
sometimes surgical intervention is also needed.
