Groin odor: Many possibilities. Are you circumcised? If not, are you able to retract your foreskin and wash the head of your penis? Germs like dark and damp places. See doc to make sure you do not have a fungal infection. Germs like dark and damp places. Consider using anti-bacterial soap and Gold Bond powder. Peace and good health.
