The initial symptoms of strongyloides hyperinfection syndrome may include fever, haemoptysis, and wheeze. A chest radiograph may reveal pulmonary infiltrates, which can represent a combination of oedema, haemorrhage, and pneumonitis.
As you bring the underlying hormonal disorder under control, you should see the dark patches fade. If your underarm skin remains dark, try applying over-the-counter topical creams containing lactic acid or glycolic acid, which can help to exfoliate the dark patches. Another cause of underarm darkening, especially in women with brown skin, relates to external assaults on the skin. For example, chemicals in underarm products, such as deodorants and antiperspirants, can produce an allergic or irritated reaction. Excessive rubbing can have a similar effect.
Rash is a symptom that causes the affected area of skin to turn red and blotchy and to swell. A rash may cause spots that are bumpy, scaly, flaky, or filled with pus. Rashes can vary in location, pattern and extent and may occur in any area of the body. A rash under your arm can have a variety of causes, and it may indicate something occurring around the underarm itself or suggest a systemic (body-wide) condition.
