I want to suggest that you get a local family practitioner review because it sounds like an infection arising from your scar. The scar could have broken down hence why the smells and pain.
As it is the summer, you may also be perspiring more. Please wear cotton underwear over warmer months and hydrate more. Please do not use baby powder as it may be irritating to the skin. Best to keep the skin clean and dry and wear less tight wear. Cotton clothes is also helpful.
