Natural Cure for Bumps Underarm Bumps in the underarms could be a lot of things, from minor skin problems that do not require treatment to serious conditions that may need medical attention. You have not provided any more information on which a diagnosis and treatment can be based — what kind of bumps, how do they look, how large are they, how many are there, is there pain or itching, are they darker or lighter than the rest of your skin or the same color, and are there any other symptoms?
If the bumps you mention are like pimples, or are tiny and numerous, they are probably some kind of rash or fungal infection.
Cleanliness is extremely important — see if the rash disappears after a week or two of keeping the area clean and dry. If you shave your underarms, the bumps may also be because your skin is sensitive to the shaving cream or gel that you use, or even the razor itself. There is a possibility of hair follicles being infected in the underarms.
The bumps could also be cysts or abscesses, in which case they would be larger, and filled with fluid or pus. Another possibility is that they are tumors that could be cancerous. The best thing to do is to visit your doctor and let him or her decide.
