Underarm odor is caused by abnormal secretion of apocrine glands under armpit. Underarm odor has certain heredity, which is also related to hyperhidrosis in children. Antiperspirant can be used to relieve symptoms after underarm odor appears. After the child reaches the age of 18, abnormal apocrine glands can be removed by surgery to achieve radical cure.
