Anita,
It sounds like an allergic reaction of some sort. I don't wear regular deoderant anymore, as I have very sensitive skin, and didn't want anything to freak me out. Like you are experiencing now!
Try not to shave the area for a few days, and use cornstarch or nothing to see if that helps. If it doesn't go away in a few days with care, call your physician. Do you have a dermatologist? They could probably tell you more about it than your ONC. if it is a reaction of some sort.
From what I have read, it doesn't sound like anything to worry about. 
Hang in there,
