Smell of Smoke
I have had the smell of smoke in my nose for 3 weeks now I don't smoke and I'm not around anybody that smokes I'm a stay home mom so there is no place where I'm around that smells like smoke, I also start to have nauseas, dizzines and headaches, I also sometimes feel a little unfcontable because I can breath right due to the smell any ideas?

Welcome to the MedHelp forum!
The symptoms of smelling an exhaust like smell everyday could be due to the smell getting trapped in the nasal passages due to polyps, inflamed nasal turbinates, foreign body or due to tumors. In these conditions at times the air carrying this smell (you may have felt it somewhere) gets trapped causing one to smell it again and again. It could also be due to fungus in the nasal passage.
It could also have a psychological component to it. Since a confirmed diagnosis cannot be given on net please discuss these possibilities with your doctor once. You may need to consult an ENT specialist.
Hope this helps. It is difficult to comment beyond this at this stage. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!
