What Causes Smell Of Blood In Nose?
Hi, recently I woke up and started getting a strong smell of blood in my nose, but by the afternoon the smell was gone. I am stressed out due to the economy's job market, being a college graduate unable to find work, and living with relatives who aren't intelligent enough to understand what the economy is doing to the job market. Is there anyway I can stop the smell from coming back into my nose?

Hi
Welcome to HealthcareMagic
Do not worry! The taste of blood is nothing but the sinus secretions which is absolutely normal.
The sinus secretions contains almost the same plasma constituents as that of blood, and thus the taste.
Drink plenty of warm water, the taste will clear off.
Regards
