Why My Husband Smells So Bad After Drinking?
Just wondering why my husband smells so bad after drinking. Not just a beer smell, but some kind of smell that comes from his pores. Our entire bedrooms smells bad in the morning after he's been drinking. I know this sounds like an odd question, but could this have anything to do his liver not being able to process the amounts of alcohol he's drinking? Thanks

Yes foul smelling means liver is not able to work properly.Alcohol heavily affects liver.Liver is the organ which detoxify the harmful substance in the body.If it is not working properly, metabolism and detoxification process affected.Urea and other substance accumulate in body and cause foul smell.So better to go for sonography abdomen and liver function test of him and take the treatment after report and deaddict him.
