A member asked:

Why do i smell towards the middle of the day and on? i always take a shower once a day for at least 20 minutes and i put on deodorant on. i need help.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Normal: Provided u continue to keep clean after sweating having some mild body odor is normal.However a strong body odor will become a problem. Check diet avoid strong odorous food or spices. May wipe armpit clean around midday and reply your deodorant.
