The odor emitted by it often affects the quality of life and social communication of patients, leading to psychological disorders in patients and seriously jeopardizing their mental health. With the continuous development and progress of medicine, there are many ways to treat armpit odor at present, but there is still no perfect way to treat armpit odor. This article reviews the progress of treatment methods in recent years.展开更多
