Nowadays, there are many ways to treat underarm odor, from using natural herbs to surgical methods. However, not everyone knows how to treat underarm odor properly and effectively.

How to treat underarm odor properly?

With more than 10 years of experience in treating underarm odor, listening to the concerns and inconveniences that people with underarm odor encounter in life, Dr. Tran Hoang Oanh, Head of the Department of Surgery at Xanh Pon Hospital, shared:

Not all cases of underarm odor require surgical treatment such as minor surgery to remove underarm sweat glands or endoscopic axillary sweat gland aspiration.

For mild cases of underarm odor, you can apply home remedies such as using natural ingredients such as lemon, ginger, alum or deodorant.

Ineffective treatment of underarm odor at home may be due to improper use. For example, many people use deodorant incorrectly. To use deodorant properly, you need to note:

- Shake the bottle before spraying the deodorant.

- Do not spray deodorant directly into your armpits. Apply deodorant sparingly after dressing if you sweat a lot.

In case you apply the above methods but still encounter many inconveniences caused by underarm odor, this is the right time for you to seek surgical methods to help treat underarm odor more thoroughly.

To completely treat underarm odor, the surgical method of removing underarm sweat glands is trusted by doctors and highly appreciated for its effectiveness and aesthetics. Removing underarm sweat glands is just a minor surgery, performed quickly in about 30 - 60 minutes, after the surgery you can drive yourself home.

Is axillary sweat gland removal surgery to treat underarm odor and sympathectomy surgery the same?

Many people confuse the surgical method of removing axillary sweat glands to treat underarm odor with the method of sympathectomy. In fact, these two methods are completely different.

The method of removing axillary sweat glands is just a minor surgery, anesthetizing the armpit area to remove the aprocine glands (aprocine glands are glands that produce fatty acids, when these fatty acids are attacked by bacteria, they will create an unpleasant smell called armpit odor). Minor surgery to remove axillary sweat glands helps you treat armpit odor thoroughly, reduces sweating but does not completely eliminate sweat in the armpit area.

Sympathectomy is a major surgery that requires anesthesia. It helps reduce excessive sweating in the hands and feet.
