HI
Well come to HCM
This is very common condition seen although this is not the pathological condition but this is physiological phenomenon, some time general measurement helps like drink more water have leafy vegetables, fresh fruits, if possible shave the underarm use some good quality deodorant, try medicated soap, some time antibiotic application could be helpful and the best choice would be Povidone ointment, hope this helps
