What Causes Foul Body Odor?
I noticed today that my body odor smells like baby vomit. Exactly a week ago I had nasal balloon surgery and I m still under antibiotics. I have had severe congestion and was told this is normal after this kind of surgery but this smell has to go. Please help

Hi,
As you have mentioned in your history that you have had nasal balloon surgery so there is the likelihood that the bad body odor that you are experiencing is as a result of surgery and irritation of the olfactory region in the nose.
I suggest you wait for a few days for the bad odor to disappear.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
