Hi odor in the grion is called bromohydrosis.it is mainly caused by fungal infection.it is due to excessive sweating.try to sprinkle absorb dusting powder daily twice after bath into grions to decrease sweating and use flucanazole weekly once for 3-4weeks and apply nizral ointment over the grions can cure the condition
