I WAS JUST WONDERING IF ANYONE HAS TROUBLE WITH THEIR BPI ARM PUTTING ON DEODORANT I HAVE TO PROP MY ARM UP ON THE WALL TO PUT IT ON.THEN I AM HAVING TROUBLE WITH THE DEODORANT CLUMPING UP THROUGH THE DAY I HAVE TRIED EVERY THING UNDER THE SUN AND I CAN NOT FIND ANYTHING THAT WILL NOT CLUMP. CAN ANYONE GIVE SOME ADVICE?

Yes, I had that clumping problem and switched to a wet roll on deodorant a long time ago. No problems with that. I don't have any sensation under the arm so it is hard to tell if I am getting any on the underarm or not, however!

I use wet roll too.

I use the wet roll too and prop the arm up on the wall... you know what's a pain in the rear though? shaving. put eoderant under the good arm WITH the good arm isn't so bad... but trying to shave that bad boy... goodness.

Ditto - arm on wall - wet roll on
We should all do a deodorant advertisement together would that be a hoot! How about a shaving contest? I use electric no more cuts for me.

in the UK we have a nivea compact whivh is a dewodrant that os in a tiny bottle as a liquid and is twenty ML but last the same length of time a a arosol. it s alot eisier to put on.

Do the same.Use a roll on.since my obpi is in both,left worse.I can't prop on wll.I put leg on bed and put arm on leg and move knee back and forth.Now that i'm reading this it must be hysterical to see!It works.

I have always used a areosol spray....I understand the problems for the enviornment, but it has always been the easiest way to get the deoderant where I need it.
