Six tips to prevent armpit odor in summer

　　1. In daily life, pay attention to personal hygiene and maintain skin clean.

　　Pay attention to cleanliness and hygiene, wash the affected area with soap frequently, bathe frequently, change clothes frequently, and keep the skin dry. Especially keep your armpits, perineum, breasts and other parts clean and wash them with soap and water every day.

　　2. Take a shower after exercising.

　　Doing strenuous activities or excessive exercise, especially after exercise in summer, will inevitably cause a lot of sweating, which will create favorable conditions for bacterial growth. Therefore, you must take a shower after exercise, clean your skin, and change underwear frequently to reduce bacterial growth.

　　3. The third point that must be paid attention to is to reduce the irritation to the armpit skin.

　　In normal times, long-term chronic irritation to the armpit skin should be reduced, such as frequent shaving or plucking of armpit hair, to avoid hair follicle hyperplasia and hypertrophy. If the apocrine glands are enlarged, they can secrete excessive sweat and increase the amount of lipid excretion. At the same time, armpits are warm and humid, and are airtight, which can easily breed bacteria to grow and reproduce, decompose excessive unsaturated fatty acids, and increase odor. Therefore, do not pluck your armpit hair frequently.

　　4. Stop smoking and drinking, and eat less spicy and other irritating foods, such as onions, garlic, peppers, mustard, etc.

　　5. Wear loose underwear.

　　Young men and women like to wear tights, denim clothes, etc., which cause the skin to be in close contact with the clothes, preventing the evaporation of secretions. Especially in summer, these local areas have high temperatures and high humidity, which become a "culture medium" for bacteria, causing some bacteria to breed and decompose, resulting in a special odor.

　　6. You can choose to apply medicine to local skin.

　　External medicines can have antiperspirant and antiperspirant effects, preventing sweat glands from producing sufficient unsaturated fatty acids or preventing bacteria from growing, and can only temporarily avoid the occurrence of odor.

　　In addition, it is best to keep your emotions stable and avoid getting emotional. The prevention of armpit odor cannot be ignored. We should actively prevent armpit odor so that there will no longer be an opportunity for armpit odor to be taken advantage of.
