The human armpit has a lot to offer bacteria. It's moist, it's warm, and it's usually dark. But when the bacteria show up, they can make a stink. That's because when some kinds of bacteria encounter sweat they produce smelly compounds, transforming the armpit from a neutral oasis to the mothership of body odor. And one group of bacteria is to blame for the stink, researchers say.
Armpit Rash Causes. An armpit rash may be caused due to several different factors. Three of the most common causes of an armpit rash include friction, elevated heat and exposure to allergens. 1  The underarm skin is quite sensitive and can be easily irritated via friction. Heat rash is a condition caused due to elevated perspiration which results in the blockage of the sweat ducts occurring beneath the skin. 2  The sweat trapped under the skin then causes the formation of a bumpy armpit rash, which can occasionally be painful.
