My clothes stink after washing. I think it might have to do with my skin care routine.

I have severe eczema and have to cover myself head to toe in Vaseline after every shower. It sucks but it's the only thing that helps. Then I put on cotton clothes which inevitably means they get Vaseline on them too.

Since using a new washer machine, I've noticed my clothes have started to stink, not like mildew but kind of like a stinky locker room (sorry, gross).

My husband does his own laundry and his clothes do not stink so it's definitely a "me" problem and not the washer machine. I figured maybe it has to do with my Vaseline usage and the fact that my clothes often get Vaseline on them.

Any suggestions on how to tackle this stink problem? I read some other suggestions about ammonia to get out grease stains but it's not staining I'm concerned about.

I wash my clothes at least once a week (if not more frequently) on a regular cycle with hot water and use Tide Free and Gentle. Then into the dryer on regular.
