What Causes Foul Body Odor From Body Folds?
For a few months I have this body odor that smells like old milk. I don t want to say sour milk, but old, stale milk, especially in creases that are warmer and around my hair, behind my ears. It s disgusting. I would appreciate your advice. I am female, 73 years old, not active, live in Florida.
