An embarrassing ask...

Why so many deodorant recommendations!? He needs to perspire less, not deodorise so should use an anti-perspirant, perhaps with a built in deodorant too.

mustard

or try Mitchum or some other anti persp that contains sliver ions

Does that stuff you've guys suggested work on sweaty palms?

Iontophoresis is good for sweaty palms and feet.

Haven't read all of thread so apologies if I am repeating information.

BOTOX works wonders for sweaty pits, my partner works in a clinic and she swears by it, it's not a lifelong solution and works for different periods on different people.

You only needed to read back about 4 posts to see the Botox discussion...

OK, OCUK, please help me...

For some reason I sweat a fair bit under-arm and my light-blue work shirt picks up and it looks quite off putting. It doesn't smell though...is there anything you can suggest other than putting on a t-shirt underneath to 'soak it up'?

If it's a real pain then a solution that you can use is to get the sweat glands injected with botox. This will stop sweating.

Underarms are well and truly burning!!!

koolpc · 1 Jun 2013 at 09:21

You could smear super glue under your arms? That will block the sweat pores but then your butt will start sweating!! lol

You really don't need to put as much dricolor on as a normal roll on remember, two or three careful rolls will do. First time no used it I chucked it on and couldn't sleep because of the burn lol!

It gets easier, after using it every other day or whatever it was it says I just use it twice a week now without much bother.

Same here - not normally sweaty but a few weeks ago I was in Saudi Arabia - started using driclor about 2 weeks in advance. Temps were up to and sometimes over 50 degrees Celsius, and my pits were as dry as a bone.
The only problem is that when you stop that sweating, you sweat more from elsewhere - your body just wants to bucket out sweat. So used it on my back, palms, feet, and it worked perfectly - but my forehead was sweating like mad. Then again, so were all the other westerner's foreheads! At least you can mop your brow - mopping your armpits in public could be a touch embarrassing... oh, and don't try it on your balls, take it from a man who knows!
