Good Day.
Itching in armpits can be cause of irritation or fungal infection due to sweating and occlusive conditions.
It is good that deodorant is not used.
Use Anti-fungal powder to keep armpit area dry and wear loose cotton clothes.
Advised to consult Dermatologist for treating any infection and darkening of skin.
