The appearance of body odor is like a nightmare for patients. Body odor mostly occurs in young men and women, which is hereditary. Why does body odor form? The following is the reason for the formation of body odor I sorted out for you. I hope it is useful to you!
1. Genetic factors
Such factors are always unavoidable. When both parents have body odor, the child has an 80% genetic chance; When one parent has axillary odor, the child has a 50% genetic chance. In addition, axillary odor will be passed on from generation to generation.
2. Living environment
According to the investigation, the patients with body odor in the south are more than those in the north. This is mainly due to the influence of climate factors. The southern region of China is close to the coast, with abundant rain and high humidity. However, the humid climate is easy to breed bacteria, and the body odor is caused by the infection of sweat glands secreted by and the body.
3. Human secretion
Through the analysis of axillary osmidrosis, it is found that axillary osmidrosis is more common in young adults, which is mainly due to the high secretion of young adults, especially those with oily skin, whose body odor is much stronger than that of ordinary people. Sweat gland secretion often makes the local environment on the body moist, which becomes the base for cultivating bacteria, promotes the growth and decomposition of bacteria, and produces peculiar smell on the body.
4. Bad habits
Personal hygiene is closely related to the smell of the body. Bad living habits often lead to frequent body odor. There are many places in the human body that are not conducive to cleaning, such as wrinkles under the breast, groin and umbilicus. Many young men and women like to wear tight clothes, which leads to the skin close to the clothes, prevents the volatilization of secretions, promotes high local temperature and humidity, and facilitates the breeding and decomposition of bacteria.
When they suspect that they may suffer from axillary osmidrosis and some peculiar smell in the body, the patient should actively cooperate with the doctor to explain the situation in detail according to the routine, and make clinical examination and some auxiliary examinations, so as to provide a reliable basis for the diagnosis and treatment of axillary osmidrosis in the future. You can refer to the following contents by yourself:
Family history: grandparents include grandparents, grandparents, grandparents, parents, brothers and sisters, aunts, aunts and cousins. Whether they have a history of axillary osmidrosis.
Symptoms: observe whether the ear cerumen (earwax) is wet and sticky (sugar ear oil, similar to otitis media), and a few mild patients become powder like.
Smell: wipe the armpit hair with clean handkerchief and paper to identify the taste. It is best after moving and heating.
Axillary hair: whether there is abnormal greasy matter or liquid sticky than sweat in axillary hair, and whether there is mildew and secretion adhesion.
1. Wash and change clothes frequently
Neutral soap such as Shufujia can be used to clean the places with concentrated sweat glands, so as to form the habit of bathing in the morning and evening.
The above treatment can only alleviate the symptoms. Surgical treatment must be selected for complete cure. Surgical treatment includes laser destruction of apocrine glands, excision of apocrine glands and removal of apocrine glands. These three operations must be performed without pain after local anesthesia.
Laser treatment is to destroy sweat glands on the skin with high-energy instant carbonization of laser. It is characterized by fast treatment and no bleeding. The therapeutic effect is relatively reliable. Its disadvantage is that the damage area is large, the depth of laser burning the skin is difficult for inexperienced people to master, and it is easy to omit large sweat glands, resulting in unsatisfactory curative effect.
2. Excision of skin sweat gland
It is characterized by removing all sweat glands on the axillary skin, which has reliable curative effect and can completely cure axillary osmidrosis. The disadvantage is that the damage is too large, resulting in local skin defects and more bleeding. It needs stitches. Due to the large skin tension during stitching, the movement function of both upper limbs is limited,
It is easy to cause wound infection, suture falling off, causing large surgical scars and affecting the activity function of upper limbs, especially those with scar constitution. Therefore, this surgical treatment method is only applicable to patients with serious and poor treatment effect by other methods. Clinicians are very careful to choose this method.
3. Removal of large sweat glands with small incision
The method is to make a grain size incision under the armpit, enter the skin under the armpit with a sweat gland remover, carefully destroy the sweat gland and remove it out of the body, so as to achieve the purpose of radical cure of axillary osmidrosis. It is characterized by no surgery, no stitches, less damage, less bleeding, no pain and no scars. It will not affect the patient's work, study and life. After the operation, pay proper attention to work.
4. Painless injection for axillary odor removal
The injected drugs targeted to destroy sweat gland cells, safe and reliable, can be quickly metabolized by the body, and can be metabolized and excreted by the human body within a few hours after reaching the effect of destroying sweat glands, without any side effects on the human body.
After injection, there is only a little cyanosis and swelling at the injection site, which can disappear in 2-3 weeks. It does not affect work, rest, and rest after treatment.
