How many generations does it take for body odor to become extinct?

There are still many misunderstandings about the disease of body odor. For example, many people think that body odor cannot be cured, and some people think that body odor is contagious, so if they find that someone around them has body odor, they will try to stay away from such people. In fact, body odor is not contagious, but it is reported that body odor is somewhat hereditary, so how many generations will it take for body odor to become extinct?

How many generations does it take for body odor to become extinct?

Armpit odor, also known as body odor, can occur in both men and women. Generally speaking, more women suffer from axillary odor than men, and more white and black people suffer from it than yellow people. Since axillary odor is related to the apocrine sweat glands, young and middle-aged people often suffer from axillary odor. The symptoms of axillary odor will only be alleviated or even disappear as they age. Recently, I have met many friends who have come to consult me ​​about the inheritance and treatment of axillary odor. Let’s learn about it today.

Underarm odor is hereditary. If most family members have underarm odor, then their descendants will also have underarm odor. However, this does not mean that underarm odor cannot be cured. Current medical technology can cure underarm odor completely.

How should axillary odor be treated? There are currently several treatments for axillary odor. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, Chinese medicine is generally applied to the armpits, and then the method of external treatment of internal diseases is used to achieve the purpose of treating both the symptoms and the root cause. The advantages of traditional Chinese medicine treatment are that it is safe and reliable, has no toxic side effects, is suitable for patients with various degrees of body odor, and does not affect daily work and life.

In the past, Western medicine treated axillary odor by keeping local parts of the body clean and removing secretions to reduce bacterial growth. An effective method was to surgically remove the sweat glands under the armpits and then apply medication regularly. However, surgical removal of the sweat glands would result in a larger wound that was not easy to recover from and would easily leave scars. On the other hand, removal of the sweat glands under the armpits was not conducive to the body's temperature regulation.

Most hospitals now use thoracoscopic sympathetic nerve surgery as a treatment method. This type of surgery is very less harmful to the human body and does not require major surgery. The recovery is very fast and the effect is very obvious. Basically 95% of patients stop sweating in their armpits and the odor disappears through thoracoscopic sympathetic nerve surgery.

In recent years, with the use of thoracoscopic sympathetic nerve surgery, more than 95% of patients have stopped sweating under their armpits, and the odor they had in the past has been significantly improved. Because thoracoscopic surgery is less invasive to the human body and the recovery time is very fast, it has gradually replaced the trend of traditional surgery.

The above are several treatments for axillary odor. Nowadays, many patients with axillary odor are caused by genetics. If the axillary odor is not serious, the odor can be eliminated by taking frequent baths and washing the armpits, and no treatment is needed. If the axillary odor is very serious and has affected the patient's daily life and work, medical treatment should be sought immediately. The treatment method can be determined according to your actual situation.
