Uncomfortable Odor From Nose While Breathing. Tried Medication, No Results. Suggestions?
I smell an uncomfortable odor coming from my nose when breathing in. sometimes it feels like a mentha sensation. I have gone to EMT doctor and he said bacteria and treated it with nasal compound. did not work then tried antibotics. still have it. it's been over 2 months. No one else smells it but me. any suggestions.

These are excessive crusting in the nasal cavity, when it stays for long leads to bad breath. Only saline nasal douching twice a day for 15 days will releave your problem. but make sure that you don`t aspirate this water when your douching
