I'm really struggling with this issue where my testicles have a strong, unpleasant smell, and I've noticed this yellow layer on my hair. I've tried everything from washing to shaving, but it just keeps coming back, especially in the summer. My skin around that area seems damaged too. What can I do to fix this?

_Possible Reasons for Thigh Changes_ 1. *Muscle Imbalance*: Repeated dry humping might have led to overdevelopment of certain muscle groups, causing an imbalance. 2. *Poor Posture*: Frequent pressure on your thighs and legs might have affected your posture, leading to uneven muscle development. 3. *Genetic Factors*: Natural growth patterns and genetic predispositions can influence body shape and muscle distribution.
