is triggered by the action of bacteria on the skin, frequent washing may be enough to neutralize the bacteria. Washing at least daily with soap and water may help. If the smell is localized to the armpits, for example, you can focus your cleansing efforts there. An antiseptic soap and antibacterial creams containing erythromycin and clindamycin may also help. A strong deodorant or antiperspirant can play a key role in minimizing odor. Trimming the hair in your underarms is also recommended. You should also wash your clothes regularly and remove clothes that are sweaty as soon as you can. While some clothes can be worn more than once before washing as a general rule, if you have bromhidrosis, you may need to wash after every wear. An undershirt may help keep odor from reaching your outer layers of clothing. Hope this is helpful .
