i'm hope someone can help?for over 6 years i've had a constant bad smell coming from my nose, i don't think anyone else can smell it but me, as i've asked colleagues/friend if they noticed anything, and they've all said no, this has been really getting me down and has really had a bad effect on my quality of life. Around the time it started i was having terrible problems with a back upper right tooth, it was rotting and eventually blood was coming from it, i went to the dentist and got the tooth extracted by whilst removing the tooth,the dentist left part of a the tooths root in my gum as it broke off, he said not to worry about it and it would be ok left in my gum, it remained there for the last 6 years although my gum did swell up now and again around it, which i just ignored, eventually after my gum swelling up bigger than usual, i got it removed in December 2006, i was hoping this might have cured my sinus problems but there has been no change as of yet, could this infected root be the cause of my sinus problems?
My symptoms are metal taste in my mouth, constant bad odour from my nose, can't smell anything else as a result, blocked nose frequently, the smell can get worse when eating too, and with changes in the weather, fatigue, facial fullness around my cheeks, and i also had glue ear
For the last year i've used Sudafed decongestant it helped a little now and again with the odour but its still there, after reading prev posts on here i've started using a Sea Water spray for 2 and it appear to be working better, but has cleared up the problem, please help!!!!
