ARMPIT ODOR...Help!!!?!
Question: I am a very clean person and I shower everyday (if not twice), but I have a stinky armpit problem. The strange thing is that I do not sweat...my shirts are never wet..and it takes a lot for me to sweat if I do. I put deodorant on everyday..again sometimes twice to try to smell ok, but I can not get rid of this odor problem. What the hell is wrong with me? Any suggestions?

I feel your pain. I'm like you. I bathe EVERYDAY if not more often but sometimes I can't seem to fight off the funk. I've read that rubbing alcohol, listerine and white vinegar can help kill the bacteria that cause the funk (when you rub them on your skin after a shower then rewash). I've also read that it's helpful to bathe at night and then apply deoderant/antiperspirant because it needs to sink into your glands before it can work. One gigantic problem I found was that even if my pits weren't funky, my cotton shirts WERE. I have yet to find a way to kill the bacteria in my shirts. If any lingers after a wash, they tend to smell nice until I iron them or wear them for a bit then BAM! Mild to potent onion a la pits. Your body is only about a 3rd of the battle--the clothing is really the hard part. Good luck.
ask your doctor.
they could probably give you some kind of medicine for this.
make sure you are drinking lots of water every day. Shower every day and put deodorant on when you get out of the shower.
If the problem continues, you should go to the doctor.
Sweating has nothing to do with B.O. You might need prescription deodorant and change your eating habits, that might help. Also, some smell is normal, it is stronger to you more than likely. Ask some people close to you if they have noticed anything. Good luck...
Some people just have odor issues. Here's a helping hint. 99% Isopropyline alcohol. You can buy it at the local drug store, or where you buy your deordorant.
The actual cause of the odor is not actual sweat but bacteria that is growing there, if you use the alcohol it will kill the bacteria and then use anti persperiant afterwards, you should notice a huge difference.
I SUGGEST YOU WASH THEM WITH SOME BABY SOAP AND THEN DOWSE THEM DOWN WITH TALCUM POWDER THIS WILL ABSORB ANY MOISTURE YOU MIGHT HAVE .
its bacteria use rubbing alcohol
i have the same problem. go 2 a doctor
