Hey Doc. So I've Got An Issue That Really Needs

Hey doc. So I've got an issue that really needs taken care of. I'm not sure which type of medical professional I should be seeing, but a dermatologist is my first guess. I have had over active sweating issues for several years. Mainly in my armpits. Now the sweating has begun to increase in my butt/groin area and there's a bad smell starting up. No matter what I try, like drying off completely, using antibacterial soap, gold bond powder, cotton underwear, nothing is working. I know there are procedures to stop sweating in places like hands feet and armpits but I haven't heard of any solutions for groin/butt area sweating. If you could point me in the right direction for treatment that would be great. I have a feeling that with this excess sweating and constant moistness, I may also have some type of bacterial/yeast infection causing all the smell. There is also the issue of when sweat begins to form in my butt area, the smell of fecal odor becomes noticeable, even after having just showered and cleaned up thoroughly. What can I do?
