What is Body Odor (Fox Odor)
nbsp;
nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; The root cause of body odor: dysfunction of the apocrine gland muscle epithelial cells leads to increased cell gaps in the sweat glands, causing large molecules such as proteins and fatty acids to enter the glands through body fluid exchange and are then excreted via the gland's excretory function. The root cause of this condition: dysfunction of the apocrine gland muscle epithelial cells leading to increased cell gaps, resulting in substances on the skin surface being decomposed by bacteria, causing odor.
nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; Body odor refers to a special smell emitted from the armpit area, medically known as axillary odor or bromhidrosis, which is related to genetics, with many patients having a family history. This condition is more common in females and often begins during puberty. Human skin has two types of sweat glands: one is the small sweat glands distributed all over the body, and the other is the large sweat glands located in the armpits, around the nipples, the navel, anus, genitals, and ear canals. The large sweat glands secrete a milky white paste or gel-like substance that is originally odorless but produces an unpleasant smell when broken down by bacteria due to the production of unsaturated fatty acids. This mainly occurs in the armpits and is less common in other areas. In summer, with higher temperatures, more sweating allows bacteria to grow and reproduce easily, making the odor more noticeable. Conversely, the odor is less noticeable in winter. Maintaining hygiene in the armpit area, bathing frequently, and changing clothes can reduce the odor.

nbsp; Causes and Common Areas Affected by Fox Odor
nbsp;
nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; There are mainly two causes of fox odor: one is general body odor caused by excessive sweating from small sweat glands, which promotes bacterial growth and decomposition of dirt on the skin surface, releasing an odor; the other is localized body odor caused by large sweat glands, with most patients having a family history. The volatile fatty acids in the secretions of the large sweat glands emit a special odor.
nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; The main cause is that the secretions of the large sweat glands contain a large amount of unsaturated fatty acids, which produce smelly small organic compounds after being decomposed by bacteria on the skin surface, while the secretions of the small sweat glands are mainly various salts and water. Therefore, the production of axillary odor requires two conditions: surface bacteria and secretions from the large sweat glands, both of which are essential. Thus, the odor of axillary odor is more noticeable in summer when sweating is more profuse and is more evident in people with poor hygiene habits.
nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; Common affected areas include the armpits, anal region, genital area, around the navel, areola, and scalp, with some mild cases.
nbsp;
nbsp; Is Fox Odor Hereditary or Contagious?
nbsp;
nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; Fox odor is caused by the decomposition of special unsaturated fatty acids secreted by the large sweat glands interacting with certain bacteria. The specificity of the large sweat glands is hereditary and cannot be contagious, but some special bacteria can be transmitted through direct contact, usually occurring during intimate moments between couples or wearing unwashed clothes of a patient. Otherwise, it is difficult for two people to have direct contact under the armpits. These special bacteria can only survive in the armpits or genital areas. However, since the large sweat glands of the infected person are normal, the symptoms are mild and can be cured using bactericidal drugs or even recover on their own due to the reinforcement of normal bacterial flora in the armpits, eliminating the special bacteria. On the other hand, hereditary conditions are difficult to cure due to the abnormality of the large sweat glands.
nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; Axillary odor is dominantly inherited. If a person is afflicted, they may have a son and a daughter. If the son inherits it but the daughter does not, then the son's offspring may also inherit it, but the daughter's offspring will be fine.
nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; In other words, if you have it, one of your parents must have it. They might have had surgery to remove it, or it disappeared automatically with age, or it was controlled with medication, so you might not notice it.
nbsp;
Methods for Prevention and Treatment of Fox Odor
nbsp;
nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; The treatment methods for fox odor are mainly divided into surgical therapy and non-surgical therapy.
nbsp;
Surgical therapy mainly includes: tissue excision method, small incision stripping, type incision thin flap method, and axillary aspiration method. The treatment principle of these methods is to destroy the human large sweat glands, control sweat secretion, and achieve therapeutic effects. However, these treatments bring many inconveniences or deficiencies to patients, such as the potential risks of surgery, easy recurrence (mainly because human cells have strong regenerative power, and they can regenerate soon after destruction), the need to prevent infection at the excised site, daily dressing changes, and leaving scars. At the same time, surgical treatment can easily disrupt the normal secretion of human sweat glands, causing endocrine disorders, producing more unsaturated fatty acids, and creating better survival conditions for bacteria. After this short-term treatment effect, fox odor cannot only not be cured but will further worsen the condition, endangering human health.
nbsp;
Non-surgical therapy mainly includes: external application drug method, cauterization method, and local injection method. These treatment methods also aim to close or destroy the human large sweat glands, control sweat secretion, and remove fox odor. However, they also have the drawbacks of easy recurrence and significant side effects. The external application drug method inhibits bacterial growth and regulates sweat glands through drugs to inhibit sweat gland secretion to treat fox odor. From the perspective of the mechanism of fox odor generation, human sweating is unavoidable, and a sterile space does not exist! These drugs can only suppress the effects of fox odor in the short term, reducing it to a level that is difficult for human olfactory senses to detect. However, most drugs on the market that claim to cure fox odor contain excessive chemical components that can harm the human body, causing allergic reactions in many patients and severely damaging their health.
The characteristic is the removal of all sweat glands on the axillary skin, providing reliable efficacy and complete cure of axillary odor. The downside is significant damage, causing local skin defects, much bleeding, requiring stitches, and limiting bilateral upper limb activity due to high skin tension during suturing. This can easily lead to wound infections, stitch detachment, and large surgical scars, affecting upper limb function, especially unsuitable for individuals with keloid-prone constitutions. Therefore, this surgical treatment method is only suitable for severe cases where other treatments have been ineffective, and clinical doctors are very cautious in choosing this method.
