I decided to wax my armpits instead of shaving, after 5 minutes my pits already started to burn but I thought it was part of waxing,anyways its been 30 minutes now and it still burns as hell, does anyone know if there is something that I could do?

Did you do it yourself? Try aloe. Or Neosporin. Dont put deodorant on.

You probably lifted some layers of skin. Try a cortisone cream. Apply it a couple of times a day. Depending on how much skin was removed, you may expect to see some areas have scaly, dark, or dry flaky patches until it's healed. Waxing your underarms is not always the easiest thing to do on your own. You can't properly brace the skin or pull at the right angle to avoid injury. It'll take practice.

Did you rip a layer of skin? If you didn't test the wax beforehand on your wrist it could've been to hot. If you didn't do anything before to prepare your skin that could be a cause as well. Did you put anything on your underarms after? Moisturizer can make it burn.

well first I freaked out a little so I used water and soap to clean my pits, that didn't work at all and made it only worse so I used a wipe that came with the waxing pot, to clean any excess wax, that didn't work as well
