Smelly Skin: Probably not. This may be a function of inadequate hygiene. Try showering or bathing daily with an anti-bacterial soap and applying a fragrance-free, hypo-allergenic moisturizing cream, like vanicream daily after showering for a week or two and see it that helps. Otherwise or if not better, get it checked out by a dermatologist.
