Hello,

I can understand your concern for burning sensation on face and underarms during summer.

I can get form your history that you are of Indian origin and accordingly must be of bit dark color or whitish complexion. It is common tendency in all of us Indians to feel more heat during summer due to our genetic tendency.

As per you description your weight is slightly higher that normal and accordingly you can feel more heat during summer. I suggest you following measure to prevent the same:

-     Take two times bath.

-     Wear cotton undergarments and cotton clothes.

-     DO not wear any synthetic garments.

-     Use an antiperspirant powder daily.

-     DO not eat more spicy food or food with more salt.

-     Reduce you weigh to at least 5-8 kgs.

I hope the above information will help.

All the best.
