Those probably aren't pimples, its most likely razor burn. use aloe vera and a good moisturizer on your armpits after shaving, it should go away. I used to get that too :) good luck!

May is right, I used to get them too. Like she said, use aloe (or even a lotion with aloe).

Do you shave or wax your armpits?
I don't think they're pimples, especially because they're itchy. Often if you dry shave, use a cheap razor, or wax irritates you, you will end up with red 'shaving bumps' or 'razor bumps'. To prevent them, use a more expensive razor with the built in lotion/ skin guard, and rinse your armpits with WARM not cold water before shaving, and use shaving cream or gel. To get rid of them, try salysilic acid or hydrocortisone

I had that its so annoying! There's a medicine called alcortin I believe and you just put it on the spots and it helped so much! You might need a prescription though I don't remember

Make sure you're keeping your underarms moisturizer, use a shaving cream when you shave your underarms and DON't use deodorant until at least 4 hours after shaving! If you have to go out in the morning, shave your underarms the night before and rub some oil on them (like almond oil, argan oil, vitamin E oil, etc.) and in the morning you can apply deodorant.

It's probably ingrown hair from the looks of it.. Try giving it a rest from shaving.. And possibly it might be your deodorant.. Try dove..
