I have had this weird bad skin odour for 2 months, it's mainly only the t-zone areas on face and a bit on the scalp. been to doctors twice no help?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Skin: Skin odor at T zone unlikely to be infected without any obvious rash or raised itchy plaque to suggest tinea. Suggest hibiclense antibacterial soap and neutrogena or ketoconazole shampoo to rule out fungal scalp infection
