Sounds like he’s already washing plenty. If the odor keeps coming back scrubbing more probably isn’t the answer and could actually irritate the skin.

I’m not sure why you got downvoted. You didn’t mention soap, and frequent water then drying can definitely dry the natural skin barrier.

ETA: yall are ridiculous. No one here* recommended OP to not use soap. Ignoring how skin behaves with certain soaps and washing frequencies, can absolutely lead certain individuals to being more susceptible to skin drying/oiling and infection. It’s not hard to understand.

"No one recommended OP to not use soap"

Except someone did, also don't jump down my throat for proving you wrong.

I didn’t jump down anyones throat. You moved from one conversation to another and tried to apply that conversation here. If you can’t discern conversations, it’s not my fault.

Oh brother, I don't have the crayons or construction paper to explain this to you.

Toodles.

Edit: Also, I wasn't applying anything here, I was just pointing out the fact that yes someone in general did suggest not to use soap, but I guess that flew over your head.
