What Causes Foul Body Odor Around Midsection?

almost like a bowel movement
Try antifungal powder...
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
The symptom you described is quite broad and honestly I am unable to point a condition that explains this odor. I have had a few patients with similar complaints where there were no other signs of an organic medical problem. I had tried treating them with antifungal powder instead of normal body powder / antiperspirant. All most all had good success with it. Therefore I would suggest you to try antifungal dusting powder especially when you need to drive a long distance.
You would also benefit by practicing good personal hygeine and using cotton underwear which has good sweat absorbing properties.
If things don't get better, perhaps I will ask you to visit a dermatologist and find out if I have missed any.
Hope this helps. Let me know if you need clarification.
Regards
