Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Chronic liver disease may produce a “mousy” odor which is due to accumulation of metabolic waste products in the body. Development of such unusual smell indicates advance disease and early intervention is needed.
Consult a gastroenterologist the earliest and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
