Anyway, the past few days I’ve noticed a stank coming up from Mr. Happy’s region whenever I pee. It’s not a pee smell - more like a fungal smell. Nothing itches or burns down there.
Any idea what’s up? (heh) I practice good hygiene, keep my bits clean and dry, etc.
IANA medical anybody but here are some top-of-head ideas …
Has Mr. Happy been anywhere unusual (to you) lately? New people, new places, new things?
Inspect the whole area for rashes and sores. Do you just have an infected scrape someplace you have a hard time seeing? Use a small mirror to see behind and under things. Or ask your SO for help inspecting.
Have you eaten anything novel recently? Some folks’ pee smells really amazing after eating some breeds of asparagus for example. Others’ pee doesn’t do that. The effect of some foods can last a couple days.
Did you change soaps or laundry detergent recently? Do your undershorts smell weird before you put them on? After you take them off?
Isolate the smell to either the urine, the clothes, or your bodily parts. Let us (or a health pro) know what you find.
Are you sure the smell is you and not your bathroom? Might it be a new smell in your bathroom or toilet that just gets stirred up, or that you only get exposed to, when peeing? I once had a bathroom that had a slow leak inside the wall behind the toilet. The only time I ever smelled the musty smell of rotting drywall was when I took the time to sit on the throne contemplating life and the universe. Correlation is not causation. I didn’t need antibiotics; I needed a plumber & new drywall.

You might have caught it from her Mrs. Happy. From what I understand, infections are rather common in the Delta swamp.
I think you’ll agree that compared to many posters here I’m really pretty full of it. I’ve done quite a few dumps over the years that were numbers a lot bigger than a mere #2.
You provided a detailed breakdown of your day and only mentioned ogling young women once.
I’m pretty sure your integrated electro-optical ISTAR sensors are more active than that.
Oh, I’ve just now realized that the acronym for “target acquisition” is T&A.
I must say that I’m rather proud of that one. I have an aversion to bathroom humor because I’d never seen it intersect with wit but I have the pretension to have just proven that they can be combined, with a literary reference even.
My next target shall be the fusion of Sir Mix-a-Lot and Jane Austen.
Coming back to the thread, anybody have more info on this time-critical question? Quick! OP may have a Smurf village growing inside him. Are there any doctors/mycologists on board this board?
If it is a yeast infection, I’d skip the cream and go straight for the oldest cure in the book–a bottle of Gentian Violet. Sure it’ll look like you fell into a pot of purple paint for a week or so, but better that than a yeast infection.
A skin yeast infection usually responds well to a quick spray of athlete’s foot spray, tolfanate seems to work well. It will sting like hell for a few seconds, though, but it won’t stain.
I do second the close inspection of the area in question with a good light and a hand mirror. If uncircumcised, check well under the turtleneck.
