Rexona products, like many antiperspirants, include aluminum salts that block sweat glands, which can cause clogged pores, discomfort, and armpit cysts in certain people.
If this happens, consider switching to aluminum-free or hypoallergenic deodorants made for sensitive skin. This is a personal preference that may assist prevent irritation based on your skin type and preferences.
Improving application practices can help avert problems. To lessen the risk of irritation, avoid wearing deodorant shortly after shaving and scrub underarms with mild soap daily to remove buildup.
If cysts form, stop using all creams, let your skin heal, and see a dermatologist for personalized guidance.
Use a warm compress to minimize swelling. Over-the-counter medications, such as hydrocortisone, may be beneficial, but see your doctor before using them.
If you suspect Rexona is to blame for this problem, you can contact their customer service at 1-800-298-5018. Testing new items on a limited area first can help to avoid future issues.
