Anyone with a sweating problem?
I sweat only on the right underarm . I am not stinking but it is very annoying. You can usually see a wet spot under that arm. It drives me crazy. Any advice? I have tried a lot of deodorants and nothing seems to work

First of all, after you take a shower thoroughly, you try you dry up your armpits as musch as possible. that's when you put your antiperspirant/deodorant. You should look for a product that says "antiperspirant/deodorant" because deodorants only mask the "body odor" but may not prevent you from sweating profusely. Antiperspirant products may contain Potassium Alum which is probably the safest alum form and can help you lessen your sweating. So try looking for some. If you happen to buy something like a liquid deodorant, try drying it up first before you wear any clothes on so it may not just be absorbs y the cloth. if you still experience unpleasant body odor try looking at your regular diet. Are you fond of eating foods with a lot of spices? Try minimising those onions, garlic, and other spices! Because there is a saying "you are what you eat!" If all of that does not work, if you have enough money, there is a surgical procedure that removes your sweat glands in the armpit!

the best over the counter one is called "certain dri"...you can find it at any drugstore-type place. If it continues to be a problem, you can see a dermatologist. They actually use botox to help excessive sweating these days!
