? i also have this terrible smell from my nose. Its really affecting my life. i've tried antibiotics, nasal steriods, nasal washes and it stil remains. its worse when i wake up and after night on the booze.. its so bad to the point that i quit my studies and spend all my time in my room. i really dont want to live with this any longer its really destroying my life. i'm only 28 and cant hang with friends cause its so humiliating..we really need specialist to really research this and find a solution because i really dont know how much longer i can handle it. does anyone else feel this low about it?? do you think it could be a liver problem?

I had the same problem with a bad smell in my nose. Like and infection. I went to the doctor, and was treated for about a 2 and a half months with antibiotics with not relief. I was referred to an ENT and he put me on a months worth of antib. with a decongestant and Flonase. This did not work either. A CT scan was done and found that I had a lot of infection in my sinus cavities, with a Retention cyst in my right maxillary sinus. The only way to get better was to have surgery. I done it and it went away. It has been 5 months, but it has returned, I started antib. early and hopefully it will not get bad. This is just something that has happened to me, I hope it is usefull, maybe you need to see and ENT.

Nose stink is usually caused by anaerobic bacteria, often undetectable by excellent doctors.  Best way to remove it is with saline. First try Neilmed Sinus Rinse, if that does not work (because of gravity) a FlipTurn Sinus Flush will.  It is risky because you have to bend over in a shower, but you can also do it outside on soft ground.  Continue to rinse for at least 3 days after smell goes away or it might grow back.
