What Causes Rotten Smell From Nose?

I have a rotten smell coming from inside my nose for the past few weeks. I have tried to clean out my sinuses and the smell went away briefly but always comes back. I am not sure what it could be I also got a cold sore inside my nose two weeks ago after constantly blowing and picking my nose i now have a scab inside my nose and the scent is amplified.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, this could be due to formation of purulent discharge and this can be well managed with "Tab Doxycycline 100 mg long acting once in day for 7 days, "Tab Loratadine with pseudoephedrine" three times in day, for 7 days, try steam inhalation too, everything would be fine soon, take care.
I find this answer helpful
