In the intense sun and heat, the situation has been suffocating since the middle of Chaitra. Those who have to go out for school-college or office work every day, have to suffer from the problem of sweat and bad smell of sweat. If you go out in the sun, your body will sweat.
Sweat from the human body has no odor of its own. This bad smell is due to the origin of a kind of bacteria in the sweat on the skin. Sometimes it leads to very embarrassing situations. Not only the bad smell, but the accumulation of sweat in the body can also lead to fungal infections.
The origin of sweat
is from the two glands of the body, eccrine and apocrine. Eccrine glands are responsible for sweat produced as a result of exercise or exertion. This sweat has no stink. It keeps the body cool. Unwanted hair and apocrine glands in the armpits and genitals are responsible for smelly sweat.
It is normal to release sweat from the body if you are in hot weather for a while or do any kind of physical activity. But if there is excessive sweating in certain parts of the body like hands and feet, underarms for no reason, it is called hyperhidrosis. About one percent of the total population may have this problem.
