Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain bad odour from mouth and nose can be due to a number of causes like poor oral hygiene,oral and dental infections, tonsil stones, upper respiratory tract infection, sinusitis etc..
I would suggest you to consult an Oral Physician and get evaluated and a thorough clinical evaluation can help in diagnosis and treatment can be done once the cause can be ruled out..
As of now you can take steam with a few drops of eucalyptus oil in boiling water..
You can gargle with flavoured mouthwash..
You can chew flavoured sugarfree chewing gum..
Avoid high aroma foods like garlic and onion..
Drink plenty of water..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
