Are there any tips for reducing body odor?
Clinically, there is no so-called trick to remove body odor, and generally, it needs to be improved through medication, physical therapy, and surgery. It is recommended that patients seek medical attention promptly and select an appropriate treatment method under the guidance of a doctor. Here are the options:

If the symptoms are relatively minor, some antiperspirants can be applied externally under a doctor's instructions, such as Urotropine Solution and Trichlorophene Ointment, which can inhibit bacterial growth and reproduction, reducing the amount of sweat.
This includes microwave therapy and laser therapy, which primarily utilize the principles of light and heat to act on the apocrine gland tissue, causing local atrophy and necrosis of the apocrine glands, thereby eliminating the odor. However, these methods may cause symptoms such as skin redness or pain, so it is essential to have professionals operate them to avoid causing damage to the body.
For those who do not respond well to the above two methods, minimally invasive surgery can be performed, which involves completely removing the subcutaneous apocrine glands with a scalpel to eliminate the fox odor. Due to the relatively large trauma and long recovery time of this method, proper care should be taken after surgery to avoid infection caused by water contact with the wound. Additionally, maintaining personal hygiene by bathing frequently, keeping the axillary area dry and clean, and wearing loose cotton clothes can help reduce discomfort. Eating a light diet with plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables while avoiding spicy and stimulating foods is beneficial for overall health.
