Sinus/Odor Problem

[jgw4nm]

Periodically I smell a musty odor. I kept thinking it was in my home but I smell it anywhere I go. I've told friends about this and they say I don't smell musty, so it must be a smell only I can smell. It's a dusty/musty odor and sometimes keeps me awake at night and makes my throat tickle. Could this be a sinus problem. I've asked my family also and they do not smell it. I do have some problems with sinus congestion from time to time.

It's a 6 months followup from subglottic stenosis dilation. Everything seems much better at the present time. Just waiting and praying for forever!

Followup is in 4 months?  That seems long.  what surgery?

It's a followup from another surgery.

you're welcome!

wow, february, sounds like they're pretty busy...

The smell is only occasional and not as bad now, and there's been no more blood. I have to see my ENT in February so if nothing else happens, I'll wait and talk with him about it then. Thanks for your help.
