Hi dr Yesterday I was feeling a little damp in my ass crack I had worn tight clothing So I just inserted my finger to Check if my ass is sweating But there was no sweat only a little moist Very little moist Then I smelled it and the smell was very natural and musky and then the smell disappeared in 2 seconds I repeated Again same thing I think it is my natural smell What is the cause of it Can u please tell me Do we have Glands there? The smell only lasts 2 Seconds or 3 and then disappears Is it natural? I had even checked few days before Smells very similar The smell is even right from the anus to the end back of the butt crack Is it because of sitting for long hours?

The musky smell you're experiencing in your anal region is likely due to the presence of apocrine glands, which are sweat glands located in the genital and anal areas that produce a protein-rich secretion, which, when broken down by bacteria, can cause a strong, natural, and musky odor, especially when you're wearing tight clothing or sitting for long hours.
