What should girls do if they have body odor? These 6 methods work!

Body odor is a disease that everyone is very afraid of. It is medically called bromhidrosis. In life, because men prefer to exercise and many young men do not pay much attention to hygiene, men are more likely to have body odor, but women also have body odor from time to time. This is very harmful to girls' physical and mental health. Here are some effective coping methods.

1. Pathologies of the axillary sweat glands.

There are two reasons why children may have body odor: one is due to genetic influence, and the other is due to the influence of hormones during the development of the apocrine sweat glands during puberty, because the apocrine sweat glands are controlled by the gonads. In recent years, early puberty has become common, with many girls entering puberty at the age of 11 or 12, and boys as early as 11 or 12. Once the hormone secretion of adolescent children is unbalanced, it is easy to induce abnormal growth of apocrine glands, thus causing body odor.

2. Take a bath and change underwear frequently

Since children's apocrine sweat glands are not fully developed, they will grow again after surgery, leading to recurrence. Therefore, the best age to undergo axillary odor surgery should be after adolescence. Don’t worry, you can temporarily use some external medicines to remove the odor before that. In daily life, parents should pay attention to bathing their children frequently and changing their underwear frequently. Keep your armpits dry and clean to reduce the risk of odor.

3. Pay more attention to your diet

In terms of diet, children can eat more vegetables, fruits and melons that are rich in water. For example, lettuce, cabbage, orange, watermelon and winter melon are all rich in water, and you should also consume more high-fiber and water-rich foods. This can increase the speed of bowel movements and help excrete organic matter in the stomach and intestines, making it difficult for bacteria to grow, which can naturally reduce some body odor. When the child reaches the age to undergo surgery, parents can take the child to the hospital for surgery.

4. Pay more attention to your child’s mental health

The same cannot be ignored. Don't think that children are still young and won't care about these problems. Parents should think from the perspective of their children. Children, like us, have their own social activities and self-esteem. If a child is laughed at or excluded because of a bad smell when interacting with classmates or friends, it will cause considerable harm to the child's young mind. It may cause children to become inferior, depressed, autistic, and afraid to participate in interpersonal activities, which is not conducive to their growth. When parents find that their children have symptoms of body odor, they should help their children deal with it in time and not ignore it.

5. External application of medication:

External medications mainly have antiperspirant, antibacterial and fragrance-maintaining functions, but generally cannot completely destroy sweat glands, so they can only relieve symptoms but cannot completely eradicate them.

6. Ginger slices can relieve the symptoms.

We all know that ginger slices are a seasoning we often consume, and ginger has a certain bactericidal effect. You only need to wash the ginger slices, cut them into slices, and rub them on your armpits. Rub them twice a day, each time for about 5 minutes, which can reduce body odor.
