I get that on occasion in the summer from sweating too much and deoderant. Make sure your pit stays dry and leave the deoderant off of it for a couple of days. Sleep without a shirt on and leave your pit open to the air. I'm not a doctor, but I play one on TV.

I've heard of a certain venereal disease that has that same symptom. Your left arm pit starts hurting like crazy...Next thing you know, your wally goes into a slump and falls off...

From what I understand and what Evil Angel tells me..it takes from 5 to 8 months to develop from catching it to where your pit starts hurting..


Say, weren't you in Philadelphia about that long ago?

The tools of conquest do not necessarily come with bombs and explosions and fallout. There are weapons that are simply thoughts, attitudes, and prejudices to be found only in the minds of men. For the record, prejudices can kill and suspicion can destroy and a thoughtless, frightened search for a scapegoat has a fallout all of its own for the children and the children yet unborn and the pity of it is that these things cannot be confined to the Twilight Zone.

This thread sorta reminds me of the time somebody said Ken was a doctor, and to send a picture of the lump on your penis to him. What ever became of that? And was Ken really a doctor?

Are you sure you didnt get bitten by something? Spider? Maybe it got infected.
I would go to the docter if its not better within a week. Just to be sure. Brown recluse can be deadly if not treated. Good luck.

Yep.. it's called Talkalotanopenititis... it's very contagious. Just a word of advice though... the key to preventing this VD is eliminating the use of Tequilla, cherry flavored enemas and KY.... mmm hmmm......lol

I get a funny rash just under my left arm too. Below the armpit though.

It's only when I cycle, so I assume it's something to do with chafing or sweat, but it does tend to be quite unpleasant.

Maybe we should start a left-underarm rash club :D

it was probally cause by friction. take a razor and shave it, and then put lots of alcohol, or iodine on it. it will clear it right up, just make sure to provide a sound clip :D
