I am 19 years old and I have a chronic problem. My entire life I have had a terrible body odor. I practice personal hygeine just like normal people. I scrub with soap in the shower twice a day. I apply antipersperent deodorant twice a day. But still the problem continues. This problem has been around for as long as I remember. I can't smell it myself. When I sniff my skin, I just smell the soap or deodorant I have used. But people sure let me know. When people are around me, they start sniffling alot. They some times sniff their armpit or make a weird face. People have told me it is a varrying odor that ranges from a strong fecal smell to a very musty vomit like smell. A friend told me it could be a disease like diabties, but I have tested negative for that. I have reached the end of my rope. This chronic odor has really caused depression and difficulty with me maintaining a job. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
