    JoJo, a pimple in your armpit can be all kinds of things - including a pimple. Keep the area clean and dry; and try applying warm compresses. If it doesn't disappear within a couple of weeks, you might want to see a doctor. In the meantime, please read our post on armpit lumps for more information about what this might be. Good luck - PJH
