I ve been having a bad smell when I pee. It smells like burnt garlic, it happens every time I go to the bathroom. I take a few medications but, none say any thing about urine odor. I do eat garlic in my food but, I ve always ate garlic ever since I can remember and It s never done this before. Please help me! THANK YOU for your time.

Hello,

* As per my clinical experience, the garlic intake will usually not interfere with urine smell as it is consumed since a long time, not a recent change.
* Prime reason here sounds severe urinary tract infection with certain bugs which are responsible for producing peculiar odor and for which you require to get urine culture and antibiotics accordingly.
* At present plenty of liquids cranberry pills, citrus fruits with vitamin C will help to a certain extent for relief.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
