Add tea tree oil to the wash; also disinfects.

A bath wash with tea tree oil also helps with underarm odor.  

I had a rash a few weeks ago, and couldn't use my deodorant.  I used a tea tree oil bath wash in the underarm area, and I was able to forgo my deodorant!

@kittyloo...We had that problem here too. My daughter got it from me though I think. She now wears the Secret Clinical strength anti perspirant and it works for her, but I used to pre-treat the arms of her shirts with some liquid detergent and scrub for a minute or so. This seemed to help a lot.

I also used stuff from the Derm called Drysol 40 years ago almost-straight alum chloride-stung like a SOB. I think they have better things now. Anyway, it did work. My daughter has done fine with the Secret Clinical though.

I also use white vinegar, also to keep dark clothes dark.  1 cup per load.

I agree with seeking medical advice.

Try to buy her(Is Clinical )anti perspirtant.

Aside from the sweating issue.....it sounds like she's one very lucky young lady to have you on her side.

@kittyloo  Be very careful as to what you add to the wash.  I would contact her doctor or a dermatologist, but I would start by adding either baking soda or white vinegar (maybe even cleaning vinegar) to the wash.  You might also ask her coach for ideas of what to use.

I work out every day and was concerned about odors, even though they would be nothing like you are dealing with.  I started adding some of the deodorizing crystals that are prevalent on today's market, and I ended up with a serious skin infection, which I am still dealing with, for over a year.  It is now under control and pretty much gone, but you do not want her having any such issues.

White vinegar gets it out. 

I have had this problem off and on with my son's clothing, and I buy big jugs of vinegar at the grocery, and I put it in the wash cycle, the shut the machine off to soak. 

I use a lot. Many will tell you just a cup or so, but I really glug it in. Only think I've found that really works.
