I would stop using the deoderant, and see if the rash goes away after that. I'm guessing it might be your doederant, there might be something in that brand that just doesn't go well with your skin. If the rash doesn't clear up, when you stop using the deoderant it just might be your laundry detergent.
If it's either of those, try switching to something more gentle. I hear those natural deoderant and detergent is really good. Try to get a deoderant that is unscented. Have you ever heard of the salt deoderant? It's a stone that you wet, then rub on your under arms, apparently it's suppose to be really good.
Unscented things are always good for people with sensitive, irritated skin. Even if it is not your deoderant, I wouldn't apply any on my under arm while I have a rash, it could bother it even more, just keep the area clean, so it doesn't get more irritated.
Sorry if this doesn't exactly help, it's all the advice I can give, seeing as I haven't had any reaction under my arms before due to deoderant or detergent.
Best of luck! If anything, you could go to the doctors or a dermatologist, and ask them about the rash. I'm assuming for sure, they would know.
The triamcinolone is too strong for ongoing use in the armpits anyway. Causes of rashes in the armpits can be allergic reactions, irritant reactions, seborrheic dermatitis, psoriasis, erythrasma and others. The hydrocortisone is safe enough for the armpit. If it doesn't work see the dermatologist for a diagnosis and treatment.
