Bad Bo Problem, Help

I have a very, ummmmmmmm, 'honest' mother, and over the course of the holidays she's been quite comfortable in informing me that I stink. in the nicest way possible of course! She understands totally how things like washing can be harder for me (see 'my societies' for answer why). But that's why I get my dad to help, as he did in the bath 1 hour ago..... But, i am told, I still smell.

Could someone please advise, I wash every morning and I wear good deoderant, WHAT IS THE PROBLEM??????? I'm off to uni soon, I already have a disability going against my sex-appeal, i don't want anything else!!!!! Oh and, I suppose, due to the way i am, simple tasks (even typing) take up a lot of energy and therefore cause ummmm unwanted dampness around sweat glands!

Advice?????

You could use better than Sure. Look out for proper like presciption strength ones.

Well some men trim, so trim. Don't shave. Just means the sweat will be hanging around in your armpit hair and going mouldy, hence smelling. So cut as much off as poss :p:

Use a rollerball antipersperant deoderant. No buttons, easy, and they stop you sweating. I use sure, works well enough for me.

There is this special deodorant/anti-perspirant that stops you from sweating, you only need to put it on once a day and it lasts for absolutely ages. Its in a white bottle with blue stripes, and its a roll-on, so no need to worry about 'spazz friendly buttons'. Not sure where you can buy it from, as you might need to get it from a chemists, rather than just the local boots.

You could also try a deodorant/anti-perspirant with aluminium in, as they basically just block the pores extra tightly you so don't sweat, i've been told they are really good if you sweat excessively.

As a very, very last measure, and this is if you sweat a lot rather than having a slight whiff; Botox. If you have Botox under your arm pits, it freezes the glands so you don't actually sweat at all.

Hope this has been helpful! :smile:

As well as a good deoderant do you wear clean clothes. Sometimes its clothes that stink rather than the person. I've also heard that eating stinky food makes sweat smell worse.

as well as trimming your armpits, wipe your armpits with anticeptic wipes. they kill germs and really help. also it could be something that you are eating. are you drinking enough water? are you taking any medication?look into their side effects. am not sure but some medications can cause bad BO.

if this doesnt stop go to the doctor, there are people who just smell bad and it has to do with the glands at the armpits.
