I'm a 42 year old white male, in good health. Since I was young I noticed a certain odor that would occur now and again, going away usually within a week or so. The odor would change in make up (sometimes sour, some foul, mostly soft and slightly sweet, hard to define).
Recently, for about a week now, I have this scent back in my nose. Its sweet and slightly musky. I've used a Neti pot with a zinc / aloe formula to flush out the scent. No luck. I've always brushed my tongue after brushing my teeth, and have started to gargle, again with no luck.
I will be going to see my family doctor but am wondering this.... if there is no cold or overt sinus congestion/breathing blockage from my nose, what could this possibly be? How can it be cured? and can something like this come about for no reason and never go away?
Thank you for your time,
Dirwood
