Wang Tao, Department of Plastic Surgery, Shanghai Ninth People’s Hospital: Generally speaking, everyone has sweat glands on their body. In addition to the armpits, there are sweat glands around the umbilicus of the perineum and in the areola of the nipples. It will affect the normal life and social interaction. So in a way, armpit odor cannot be said to be a disease, but should be understood as an overproduction of sweat glands in the armpit that causes psychological and social disorders. If you feel that it affects your life and social life, then even the lightest smell can be called armpit odor.
