Why does your armpits smell?
Why does the sweat smell funny? But like if you swear on your head, forehead,arms,feet,legs, it doesnt stink. But only on ur armpits?
Why sometimes, my forehead is oily and shiney and sometimes it isnt. Like ill wash it, and then it gets oiley again. I think it has something to do with what I drink. Like i was drinking water then i switched over to gatorade, and i broke out in pimples. Im 15.
Your armpits are closer to your nose therefore you can smell it more easily. Try using an antiperspirant. By-the-way, who said your feet don’t stink. hahahaha!
Sorry! I just had to say it. On the serious side though here’s an article that should be helpful. Good Luck!
Eccrine sweat glands are distributed over the entire body surface, but are particularly abundant on the palms of hands, soles of feet, and on the forehead. These produce sweat that is composed chiefly of water with various salts. These glands are used for body temperature regulation.
Apocrine sweat glands produce sweat that contains fatty materials. These glands are mainly present in the armpits and around the genital area and their activity is the main cause of sweat odor, due to the bacteria that break down the organic compounds in the sweat from these glands.
