What Causes Sensation Of Bad Odor Along With Throat Irritation?

For several weeks I have been smelling an odor like wet clothes that have soured . I haave rewashed EVERYTHING in white vinegar only to discover it is not any clothing or towels. I smell it throughout the day. This has always been an offensive smell to me. It is making me crazy!!! It s not my skin or my hair. I feel sure it is all in my head ...like maybe my sinuses or something. I started flushing them now as well with a Neti Pot. The only thing I have noticed different is a heavier buildup on my tongue when I clean it and also my throat is a little irritated as it gets occasionally with acid. Any ideas??

You should see an ENT doctor , who will probably ask for a CT PNS . I believe most of your problems are due to acid reflux for which you will need to be started on PPI.
