What to use for underarm sweating

In the summer, if you dress improperly or do not pay attention to personal hygiene, you will sweat more under your armpits, which will breed bacteria. The bacterial growth process will produce a lot of odor, which will greatly affect social interaction and give people a bad impression. Therefore, when you sweat under your armpits, you must pay attention to management. First of all, you must pay attention to personal hygiene. In fact, in the summer, you must wear cool clothes to help dissipate sweat. In addition, you can use talcum powder or some antiperspirants to relieve sweating.

If your armpits are prone to sweating, pay attention to these details

1. Pay attention to your diet: Don’t eat too much spicy and irritating food, especially things that produce odor such as raw onions. They will emit an unpleasant odor when they are converted into sweat and excreted through the body’s metabolism. You should eat more foods rich in calcium, such as milk, soy products, dried shrimp skin, kelp, fish, bone soup and green leafy vegetables.

2. Pay attention to hygiene: Sweat will only emit odor after being decomposed by bacteria. Keeping the body clean can reduce bacterial growth and prevent the occurrence of body odor. You can bathe two to three times a day with disinfectant (such as Dettol) or disinfectant soap; if you have to go to work and cannot bathe frequently, you should also clean your armpits regularly. If you sweat a lot after exercise, you should take a shower as soon as possible, otherwise bacteria will grow and multiply, making the odor even stronger.

3. Wear airy clothes: Some people think that wearing long-sleeved clothes can cover up the smell of body odor, but in fact, it will only make the odor worse. Because long-sleeved clothes, especially sweaters, will increase sweating, accelerate the decomposition of sweat by bacteria, and the odor cannot dissipate, so it becomes more and more smelly. So on hot days, what should you do if you sweat a lot under your armpits in summer? You should wear cool, loose and thin clothes.

4. Reduce the amount of sweating: Body odor is particularly serious in hot weather because of excessive sweating, so antiperspirants should be used to reduce sweating. Antiperspirants can block the channels for sweat secretion and have bactericidal and disinfecting effects. Basically, it is enough to apply it once a day. If the situation is serious, you can apply it two to three times, but not too many times.
