Bromhidrosis is commonly known as body odor. It is a special unpleasant smell produced by the secretions of the apocrine glands distributed in the skin of the body, such as the armpits, perineum, and back. Bromhidrosis is caused by the large amount of sweat secreted by the apocrine glands in the armpits. After contacting with the bacteria on the surface of the skin (especially staphylococci), the sweat is decomposed to produce many unsaturated fatty acids. Therefore, the treatment methods for bromhidrosis and body odor are also the same.
