Hi,
Kindly go to a doctor and drain your pus or chances of infection will be more. This might have happened due to the shaving of your hair in armpit which might have been infected.
Kindly drain the pus as soon as possible and once it comes back to normal, whenever you shave use an antifungal cream to avoid future infections.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
