By Need To Bathe In Deodorant - 17/07/2016 19:23 - United Kingdom - Egham

Today, it's so insanely hot that no matter how often I shower or use deodorant the smell of my armpits makes me feel physically sick. FML

Has this happened before? Cause if not, even if it's hot, a sudden ramping up of the severity of body odor can be a sign of something wrong. You may want to see your physician, just in case.

See the positive side: Everybody smells this bad today.

If you are a guy then try and shave your armpits. The sweat sits in your hair and it can help. One of my friends do it because he is a sweaty guy.

I'm with the guys here that suggest you see a doctor. I agree it's horribly hot (I'm in London), but you might thank the heat later for flagging up a potential medical concern. Xx

Hello from Texas, where it regularly gets above 100F! :) But seriously, try different deodorants, men's deodorants (if you're a girl- seriously try it) or see your doc about prescription antiperspirant. Also, remember that antiperspirant and deodorant are different! You want one that is an antiperspirant, or one that is both.

Yes OPP that smell can be nauseating. Try rubbing pure baking soda in places that smell in the shower and rince well. It works wonders for my BF he like to eat garlic lots of garlic.

You should use difference soap or scrub, some deodorants smell funny you can try another brand. Or take 2 showers a day, that is what I do during summer.

possible medical issues bad body odor is actually due to skin bacteria becoming more and more active sweat actually doesn't stink talk to your pharmacist they may have some suggestions for an antibiotic like deodorant finally try to get into a swimming pool once a day swimming pool with chlorine in it

The same thing would happen to me when I would wear gel deodorant. It didn't mix well with body for some reason so maybe try a powdered deodorant, or whatever the opposite is that you are using. Good luck
