Patient's question:
I have a bad smell when I sweat from my left armpit. It has been like this for three years. The smell is not very strong, but I don't want to smell it. In the summer, when I sweat heavily, there are light yellow crystals, which are very difficult to clean.What kind of help do I need: What should I do if I accidentally get bromhidrosis?
Doctor's answer:
Body odor is hereditary and can typically manifest around the age of 13. If you have recently noticed it, it may not be body odor but rather sweat. Additionally, body odor can be treated through surgical procedures. Maintain a regular lifestyle, balance work and rest, engage in ample physical activity, and avoid overworking. Eat less spicy and irritating foods, consume more protein-rich foods, and eat plenty of fresh vegetables and fruits. Reduce fat and sugar intake, avoid alcohol, and ensure a balanced diet. Avoid excessive stress and maintain a positive mindset.
