How To Treat Nose Odor?

I have had an odor in my nose for 4 months. No one can smell it but me. I have taken an antibiotic, capyrillic acid for yeast and using mesosilver in my nose with qtip nothing works. I have no discomfort, no stuffy nose, nothing, just this smell. I have no smell at all except this odor when I breathe in.

Hi.
Thanks for your query.
This is called Foetor in medical language. You have a history of blockage of one nostril. SO this can be Due to Chronic Sinusitis, the sinus can have pus which gives you the feeling of Weird smell.
I would advise you to have a consultation with an ENT Surgeon, get Clinical examination done; CT scan of the Sinuses and an X-ray of the chest is mandatory.
Get the treatment according to the reports. IF the CT scan is normal we can consider the possibility of a problem in the Sensory System and you may need an opinion of a Neurologist.
I find this answer helpful
