what can i do about sweating under my pits?

Answer 1

Put on a deodorant/anti- persperent(sp). If you're sweating more than normal, talk to your doctor and see what they say...Good luck and stay dry. LOL

Answer 2

Perspiration is normal and healthy, don't try to stop it. What you want to prevent is odor, which is caused by bacteria. Deodorants help with that, there are even some natural ones that work pretty well (see avalonorganics.com and burtsbees.com). Wash regularly, and use a deodorant; you can also try a corn-starch based powder.

Make sure that your clothing isn't carrying odor. Sometimes simply washing doesn't do the trick and you need to pre-treat the underarm area of garments with a concentrated cleaner or anti-enzyme. Under heavy sweaters and clothes, wear a cotton undershirt which you can then wash on hot (with bleach).

Lastly, drink plenty of fresh water. This will help to expel toxins, which means that when you perspire it will be a cleaner 'sweat'. If you still worry about odor, keep some hand wipes that you can clean up with in the late afternoon.

I hope this helps.

Answer 4

Let me do my Bill Clinton: "Ah feel yer payne!" I only sweat two times -- day and night -- but I have found one product that works like a charm: CERTAIN DRI. It's a roll-on that you put on at night before bed and virtually slams your pores shut. You can use deodorant in the morning without worrying about the Certain Dri being less effective. It's not cheap (about $6.00 a bottle) but it works. You can find it at CVS Pharmacy, Rite-Aid, and Walgreen's, just to name a few.

Answer 5

After thoroughly bathing with deodorant soap, make certain that your underarms are completely dry before applying antiperspirant. Antiperspirant is a drug, so you must make certain that you get a full dose on all parts of your armpit. If you are prone to excessive sweating, wait 5 minutes then apply again. Hope this helps.

Also, take zinc tablets. i don't know why but my grandmother, who was an herbalist used to say "If you stink, you need zinc."

Answer 6

This is assuming this is a legit question and you have done other things that are not helping.

I get Botox injected into my underarms. It is suppose to make you stop sweating for 6 months (mine doens't last as long). It make me COMPLETELY stop sweating. You might have medical condition called Hyperhidrosis. My insurance covers the botox as a medical condition. Check out
