Is it normal to have smelly armpits after surgery!?

Hello all,

I recently had surgery and as a result of that, naturally I have to take Antibiotics (last time to take them was yesterday).

It has been a week now and I have noticed that my underarms smell really strongly.

I never had this before. It is not an infectious smell as I have been for my check-ups and all is ok. It is just strong BO.

Even after I shower and scrub, there is still a hint of it there.

Is this a result of the Antibiotics? My urine also smells a lot stronger than before as well.

Thanks for the feedback guys.

P.S

I had gynocomastia surgery.
