Official Answer (Answer Time: January 2, 2012, 16:44:58): Hello,腋臭is also known as "狐臭". It often causes a lot of inconvenience for people. Because the pungent smell of腋臭(狐臭) makes people feel particularly annoyed, and most people who smell this odor will cover their noses and stay away. This gives people with腋臭(狐臭)a great psychological burden and a sense of inferiority, thereby affecting work and study, as well as social interactions. Axillary odor has hereditary characteristics and is related to the physiological structure and function of the large sweat glands, and varies greatly depending on gender, race, diet, and climate. Generally speaking, young adults are more affected than middle-aged and elderly people, people in the south more than those in the north, women more than men, people from Xinjiang and Inner Mongolia more than Han people, Caucasians and African Americans more than Asians. If both parents have腋臭, then almost all of their children will be affected. The smell of腋臭(狐臭)is more noticeable when sweating more in summer, and is also more obvious in people with poor hygiene habits.
The symptoms of腋臭can be treated externally with traditional Chinese medicine ingredients such as Yexiliang, which is rich in epidermal active factors and highly effective skin penetration agents. These can quickly penetrate under the skin, shrinking the axillary sweat glands, and killing pathogenic bacteria on the skin surface. Yexiliang can fundamentally treat腋臭,狐臭, sweat odor syndrome, excessive sweating, etc., while inhibiting bacteria, stopping itching, and eliminating odors for a fresh scent.
