How to prevent underarm odor? What are some tips to prevent underarm odor?

In life, many people are troubled by underarm odor and even feel inferior, especially in summer when many people dare not walk among the crowd. So how can we prevent underarm odor?

1. Pay attention to personal hygiene and keep your skin clean. Pay attention to cleanliness and hygiene, wash the affected area with soap frequently, take a bath frequently, change clothes frequently, and keep the skin dry. In particular, keep the armpits, perineum, breasts and other parts clean and wash them with soapy water every day.

2. Take a shower after exercise. When you do strenuous activities or excessive exercise, you will inevitably sweat a lot, which will create favorable conditions for bacterial growth. Therefore, you must take a shower after exercise, clean your skin, change your underwear frequently, and reduce bacterial growth.

3. Reduce irritation to the armpit skin. Usually, we should reduce chronic irritation to the armpit skin, such as frequent shaving or plucking of armpit hair, to avoid hyperplasia and hypertrophy of hair follicles. If the apocrine glands are hypertrophic, they can secrete excessive sweat and increase the amount of lipid excretion. At the same time, the armpits are warm and humid, and are not ventilated, which is easy to breed the growth and reproduction of bacteria, decompose excessive unsaturated fatty acids, and increase odor. Therefore, do not pluck armpit hair frequently.

4. Wear loose underwear. Young men and women like to wear tight clothes, jeans, etc., which make the skin close to the clothes and prevent the evaporation of secretions. Especially in summer, these parts have high temperature and high humidity, which become the "culture medium" for bacteria, prompting some bacteria to grow and decompose, and produce a special odor.

5. Topical medications can be used. Topical medications can inhibit sweating and stop sweating, preventing the sweat glands from producing enough unsaturated fatty acids or preventing bacteria from growing. They can only temporarily prevent odor.

Suggestion: This disease causes great harm to patients both mentally and physically. I hope everyone can develop good living habits in daily life and try to avoid axillary odor.
