Left armpit only BO But right handed

Q&ALeft armpit only BO But right handed
Kelly Tronzo asked 4 years ago

I have recently had a very strong odor of my left armpit. I am right handed so it can’t be from more activity. I recently had an injury to my left rotator cuff and have limited range of motion with left arm. The odor is very strong and is most often still present after showering. Any ideas? I don’t usually use antiperspirant just a deodorant with botanicals.

Hi Kelly, thanks for sharing. There is a difference in microbiome present between left and right armpit, which causes the differences in underarm odor. Those bacteria create a persistent malodor, even right after showering. 
Best,
