The smell of a pubescent child’s room in Busan with body odor may not be just simple sweat odor.

  • Key points
  • When children enter puberty, a distinctive body odor commonly referred to as "bachelor smell" begins to emanate from their rooms.
  • Many parents tend to dismiss this lightly, considering it a natural sweat odor from active periods or a temporary hygiene issue.
  • However, if the pungent and unpleasant odor does not easily go away even if you wash your child frequently, and the underarm area of their clothes becomes stained yellow, you should suspect body odor rather than just simple sweat odor.

  • Treatment methods vary depending on the location, extent, and progression of the lesions, and in some cases, a method of harvesting epidermis from normal skin and transplanting it to the vitiligo lesions is considered.
