How can you get armpit odor

summary

My son is suffering from axillary osmidrosis. He could hardly smell it before, but now it is getting more and more serious. For this reason, he seldom contacts people around him, and even dare not contact them. So I took him to the hospital for treatment, which has improved a lot. Today, let me tell you how I got axillary osmidrosis.

How can you get armpit odor

Cause 1: apocrine sweat glands only exist in armpit, areola, umbilical fossa, anus, vulva and external auditory canal. Except armpit, the function of apocrine sweat glands in other parts is very weak, and the sweat produced is very little. The sweat secreted by apocrine sweat gland is initially sterile. Under the action of microorganisms, it decomposes the organic matter in the sweat and forms short chain fatty acids and ammonia with special odor, which leads to the occurrence of apocrine sweat gland hidrosis.

Etiology 2: it often occurs in palms, soles and interosseous areas. Sweat is often colorless and tasteless. However, in the case of hyperhidrosis, sweat is decomposed by parasitic bacteria on the surface of the skin to release fatty acids, resulting in a special odor. Other substances such as garlic and arsenic can be excreted through sweat glands to cause odor.

Cause 3: in daily life, excessive emotional fluctuations or schizophrenia will lead to the occurrence of Bromhidrosis, and bromhidrosis is a disease with certain genetic factors.
