One who uses garlic for treatment: Is he permitted to pray with the congregation in the mosque while some of the smell of garlic remains?

Question:
The questioner says: A person uses garlic for treatment, as he was afflicted with ringworm in the hair of his beard, so he applies the juice of the garlic to the affected area. His question is: Is he permitted to pray with the congregation in the mosque while some of the smell of garlic remains, even though he washes it off before going? Or is he excused for leaving the congregation?

Answer:
If it has a smell that harms the worshippers, then he is excused for leaving the congregation if the remaining smell harms the worshipper. But if he washed it and it went away and became faint, so that it does not harm the worshipper, or if he puts a mask on it and blocks the smell, he prays. There is no contradiction. Yes.
