Does A Shoulder Sprain Cause Strong Underarm Odor?

I took a spill on my bicycle and sprained my shoulder. I now notice I have a stronger body odor coming from this armpit. I have showered but have a difficult time raising and drying my armpit thoroughly. Is the odor from the moisture or does the injury have an effect?

Shoulder sprain does not cause underarm odor.

You can use good query antiperspirant for symptomatic relief.
