>Just trying to smell nice for work cause its summer
>Use Old Spice antiperspirant for a little less than a week
>Nothing noticeable even after day 6, I use this deodorant on and off all the time.
>Day 7 armpits suddenly get a rash which I only notice after applying deodorant
It's been 1 month and 2 weeks yet my armpits are still swollen and flaking. It's taking a long ass time to heal and even if it's an allergic reaction(which it probably is) I can't believe this shit might take 2 to 3 months to heal completely.
What can I do to relieve the burning sensation?

While it still burns, put special balm for sunburns. Then use atopic skin balm (no allergen, no alcohol), don't shave for the time being.
Then don't use antiperspirants with alcohol.
Some exist without aluminium (potassium aluminium is same crap), which will not contribute in your future breastballs cancer.

I had a very similar problem. It took a very long time to get rid of the rash. I had to switch to an unscented hypo-allergeninc antiperspirant for a while. If you're in the US, look for something call ed Almay and get the unscented one. Use it until the rash clears up and then go back to your original deodorant.

It would also be wise to use a gentle soap when cleansing your pits during a shower, like the soap Ivory, scented soaps may irritate exacerbate your issue while the skin is raw and flaky.

*may irritate and exacerbate
It might be fungal in which case your doctor can give you a special creme to kill it.

Smell should be enough to detect whether it is fungus.
If no smell, stop washing with anything else than water don't irritate and let it heal

This may seem like a dumb answer, but my brother had the same problem. He fixed it by switching from blue deodorant sticks to white.

old spice is poor white trash tier

Old Spice is the worst - uses something solid and white - mens or women's doesn't matter.
Put some isopropyl alcohol on armpits. It worked for me. Do it about twice a day. Put a little on one pit to start and see if its effective.
