Put my usual Veet cream on my arm pits last night and within 3 seconds it was burning like the fire of the hottest sun. I quickly washed it off but it is very very red and swollen and I can hardly move my arms.
Anything I can do for it?? Is it worth of a doctors trip or will it go away on it's own? I tried E45 cream but nearly passed out with the stinging!
Sat with an ice pack under my pits how glamorous. I need some

Did this to myself 2 weeks ago with nair... used it for years, no idea why it suddenly burned. Ibuprofen, wet flannel, and then hydrocortisone for a week was needed for my poor face (very embarrassing). Have since invested in one of those small razor things that are always advertised on tv!

Oh thank you all!! Did my bikini line at same time and thank all the gods that is fine? But why? Underarms not as rock hard?
It's gone all blistery how awful. I am off work with an unrelated dizzy illness so sat in bed with armpits getting some air!
