Q: Smell Around Penis

asked by: fr0st2k on September 18th, 2006

Between my scrotum and legs (on both sides), sweat builds up and emits a smelly odor.

I scrub, scrub, scrub in the shower, every day. I have tried deodorant, and even tried hand moisturizer!!!(it burned!!!)

i have a girlfriend and it's very embarassing.

Please, if anyone knows what this is, please tell me!

i have this exact same problem. I have no idea how to deal with it. I think blow-drying the area after a shower might help for a few hours.

This is from sweat. Let the area air dry, or like a previous poster suggested, use a hair dryer to make sure the area is very dry after a shower.

You might try some baby powder or some corn starch powder after the area is dry.

It doesn't sound like anything is 'wrong' with you.

Maybe boxers instead of briefs--let things breathe.

If nothing works, I agree that you should go to the doctor and make sure you don't have a fungal infection caused by all the moisture. Is there a rash? Does it itch or burn at all?
