Another with fecal body odour and I don't know why??

[10z3r]

I've been smelling like poop for years now, I don't know, perhaps almost 10 years.
I quit almost everything wrong. I quit smoking, I quit drinking, drugs, and stimulants like caffeine, theine (almost no sugar). I do exercise everyday, I almost only drink water. I eat almost no red meat... I'm a really healthy person. Also my personal hygiene is very strict.
Still, I smell like ****, not everytime, apparently, not for everyone, but this has made my life not really ease. I've seen a couple of doctors and told them my problem.
Both of them in those moments, told me, that they didn't smell anything. The first one told me "Each one smells different and must be accepted" the second one sent me to a psychiatrist claiming I had agoraphobia and a paranoia because of my fecal body odour. (Of course is difficult go outside when it's going to be a tough day because of the reaction of people to my body odor, besides I've lived and worked in two other countries and now I'm going abroad for some months because work).
Anyway, I have done some analysis, candidiasis, hyper or hypothyroidism, internal hemorrhoids and Gilbert syndrome are discarded. IBS and TMAU are not discarded yet. I don't have any symptons of rectal prolapse, anal fissures, halitosis... and I'm constipated or I suffer diarrhea like everybody else, neither always nor never.
I can't forget that everytime I hear comments of how bad I smell, my anus is wet, like sweating, and also my underwear. Everything is clean, promise you, but is wet, I don't smell anything, but people surrounding me, yes, wherever I am.
Lately I've been thinking it could be IBS, because I read is like the colon is connected to the brain, and because of stress or anxiety or how I feel, could not work as it's supposed to, and also I read that one of its functions is removing the water from the feces. And I've been thinking that, for this reason, is why some days, and everyday when I have something important to do, I feel the anxiety, and my anus is wet, when no other part of my body is wet, even my armpits are dry, or never as wet as my anus.
And also because, when I took xanax (alprazolam) for the insufferable anxiety caused by this problem, my anus was almost always dry, even in some difficult moments, and I never hear any kind of comments regarding to my body odour (But the doctors cut me the medication).
For all of this I've started to think that can be IBS, and for this reason, a couple of days ago, I've started to take yobalex (probiotics + prebiotics). Perhaps my intestinal flora has been damaged some years ago, and like I've done nothing really specific to repair it, that's why I've been suffering the problem all these years. But I still don't know.
This is my problem, and my question is. After everything I've described, and for sure knowing that my fecal body odour is real, and it seems always I smell when my anus is wet, Could be this smell and/or sweat in my anus has been caused by a malfunction of my colon or by an insufficient intestinal floral of my colon???

I've had this problem before, but usually only when I pass gas...

I have no idea what you have, but if I may offer a suggestion or two. Maybe clean the area well with flushable wipes every time you use the bathroom, no matter if you do #1 or #2. And I don't know if you are male or female, but it doesn't really matter, maybe you should wear a pantyliner pad to absorb the liquid, or maybe fold TP in a small square and placing it over your anus  (same as we women do if we start our period and dont have a pad... LOL). You'll probably be a little uncomfortable with a wad of TP in your butt all day, but it's better than smelling like poop. It can't hurt...

Also, even if you don't have hemorhoids, you maybe can try some hemorhoid cream, it may tighten up your anus. Can't hurt to try... And, maybe try doing some kegal exercises to strengthen your anal / rectal muscles (some women do these to exercises tighten their vagina) In case you are unfamilliar with kegal exercises, it's like tightening your butt hole muscle over and over again... like you were trying to suck in your anus. Like what you do if you need to take a dump and there's no toilet available. Do this over and over to strengthen the anal muscles...

Hope this helps...

This won't help with the problem itself, but it may help mask the problem until a solution can be found, and help you live more normally without fear of foul odor being noticed by others..

Not, the moisture is not mucus, and I haven't had a colonoscopy. I know I don't have external or internal hemorrhoids, because one of the doctors I've visited, did an rectal examination and discard the hemorrhoids. For two days ago I've been using probiotics, and now also digestive enzymes. Because I've been reading a little more, and my problem could be "Leaky Gut Syndrome", perhaps this could explain why my anus most of the time is wet, and why I suffer body odour. But still is too soon, I need some more days to check if this new option works. Anyway, thanks for your help. If you have any other suggestion, feel free to answer me. Thanks.

I think a probiotic and Metamucil are the first things to try.  Try neem soap.  I wonder if they make tea tree oil wipes.  

Is the moisture mucus?  Have you had a colonoscopy?  How do you know you don't have hemorrhoids or other anal condition?
