Why My Kid Started Foul Smelling Breath ?
my 2.5 yr old started having foul smelling breath the other day. First it smelled of Feces (not eating his feces) and now it's metallic. I notice he's been picking his nose lately and had a coupld of nose bleeds. Could something be stuck up his nose causing this smell?

Hi.... Many thanks for consulting in Health Care Magic. By what you quote...it could be a foreign body in the mistril which he has accidentally inserted. It could cause foul smell & purulent nasal discharge. See an ENT surgeon immediately. Hope my answer was helpful for you. Happy to help anytime. Further clarifications and consultations on Health Care Magic are welcome.
