A member asked:

Everytime i put on deodorant and sweat my underarms smell funky what can it b and what's the best deodorant that prevent the smell and last long?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Drysol: Do you think the deodorants or antiperspirants you use do not work? Are you taking any meds? sometimes they may effect the sweat. In any case if you sweat excessively a prescription antiperspirant like Drysol might help
