Many people are embarrassed by the bad smell of sweat
on the body in the summer. But when you go outside, the body will sweat. Sweat
actually has no smell of its own. This bad smell is caused by a type of
bacteria that grows on the sweat on the skin. Therefore, to avoid bad smell, we
must take measures so that sweat does not stick to the body. If we are a little
aware, we can find a solution to this nasty problem - such as - -

thin cotton and loose clothes so that air can circulate. This will prevent the
body from getting wet with sweat.

extreme sun and heat as much as possible. Work in a place with air, fan or AC
instead of being in a stuffy environment.

clothes when you sweat. You should wash your daily clothes in the summer. Do
not wear socks and underwear, especially those that you have used before.

running water.

mixture of aluminum chloride can be used on the advice of a doctor. Many
antiperspirants and deodorants contain this ingredient. It can be used after
cleansing the skin.

throb. It is difficult to make sounds through the throat. In most cases, these

To

inflammation of the nose and sinusitis –

- You can inhale the hot steam through a bowl of hot water with a few drops of
menthol, cover your head with a towel, and hold your nose 10 inches above the
bowl. Or, close the bathroom window and take a shower with hot water, so that
the hot heat or steam rises in the bathroom. You will see that the congestion
in the nose and sinuses has reduced a lot. You can also soak a towel in hot
water, wring it out, and leave it on your face and eyes for a while.

bed at night. Or, mix salt with hot water in a kettle and hold your nose near
the steam coming from the kettle. This is more effective than antihistamine
drops to open a stuffy nose. On the contrary, using antihistamine drops can dry
out the inside of the nose and cause discomfort.

dehydrated. Drinking hot lemon tea with ginger will provide relief. Spicy foods
like mustard, garlic, and chili are comforting at this time.

are not needed. Paracetamol-like medicines are enough to relieve inflammation
or pain and discomfort. However, if the fever is more than 104 degrees Celsius
or does not improve within 10 days, it is better to seek medical attention.
