How to treat body odor?

1, keep local cleanliness, remove secretions and reduce bacterial reproduction; Topical antiperspirant fragrance, regular scrubbing and drug friction can temporarily relieve body odor.

2, if you want to permanently remove the odor, you need surgery. The usual surgical treatment is to remove the apocrine glands in the armpit. During the operation, make an incision of one to two centimeters on both sides of the armpit, peel off the sweat glands directly, and then suture the wound.

Reason:

1. Sweat secreted by apocrine glands was sterile at first. Under the action of microorganisms, the organic matter in sweat decomposes to form short-chain fatty acids and ammonia with special odor, which leads to the occurrence of apocrine glands.

2, when the mental or nervous system is damaged (such as paranoia, schizophrenia, etc.). ), it can also produce smelly sweat; The occurrence of bromhidrosis may be related to heredity.
