    Farmerlucy, I started getting those things a lot. They hurt and were hard to get rid of. I switched back to roll-on antiperspirant instead of the creamy sticks and haven't had one since.

    Thanks Melissa! Great suggestion! Guess DH is getting his Speed Stick deodorant back! :)

    Ban Roll-On baby. Baby Powder scent preferred;), though unscented works too. We had a funny conversation on a thread about this somewhere about the absurdity of extra moisturizing deodorant (Dove commercials I think) and the fact that none of us had ever known we needed it or had dry scaly pits. The downside is that roll-on is getting scarce. It is almost all stick now.

    I usually tell gals here when I see posts on sore axilla lumps that cysts are really common and not to panic. They are like cystic acne on your face. Sorry you had the scare

    Thanks Melissa! You'd think that in all the time I've spent here I would have read that. I know now!

    Been away from the boards for a few days and was worried to see the title of your post but so glad to hear it turned out to be just a cyst☺ I'm sorry you had this scare, you are one of those people who is so helpful to others and quick to offer your words of comfort and support...take care, (((Hugs))) Maureen
