Yes, you can get clogged pores in your armpit, like you can on your face and back. I just read this week that you can use a facial scrub with granules in it twice a week to cut down on this problem. However, be aware you have lymph nodes under your arms and should one of them become swollen, this can indicate infection somewhere and should be checked by your doctor. Lymph nodes are bigger and deeper than a pimple would be.

When sebum hardens and the sebaceous duct becomes clogged the pore impaction that is formed is a?

When sebum hardens and the sebaceous duct becomes clogged, the pore impaction that forms is known as a comedo. This can be either an open comedo, or blackhead, where the surface remains open, or a closed comedo, or whitehead, where the follicle is completely blocked. These impactions can lead to acne if bacteria proliferate in the clogged pore. Proper skincare can help prevent and manage these conditions.


What pore impaction forms when sebum hardens and the sebaceous duct becomes clogged?

When sebum hardens and clogs the sebaceous duct, it leads to the formation of a comedo, commonly known as a blackhead or whitehead. In the case of a blackhead, the clogged pore remains open, allowing the oxidized sebum to darken at the surface. Conversely, a whitehead forms when the clogged pore is closed, trapping the sebum beneath the skin. Both conditions are a result of the accumulation of oil and dead skin cells.

It could very well be a boil aka an abcess which is an infected and clogged sweat pore. they can be found in mainly the armpit and groin area because they are prone to sweat more. Sometimes they drain pus and blood themselves and return to normal leaving a small scar, but most times (especially for armpits) a doctor needs to drain it or surgically remove it.
