What Causes Unpleasant Odour In Nostril And Stomach Pain After Having Rhinoplasty?

I had rhinoplasty, septoplasty and turbinate reduction 5 weeks ago. I have noticed a foul smell in my right nostril ever since. Also 3 weeks after surgery I started to get a persistent stomach ache. I attributed the stomach ache to the meds I took post surgery. (perhaps irritating my stomach lining). Now I am wondering if I do indeed have an infection of some sort.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, as long as the bad odor is concern in nostril infection need to be ruled out, abdomen pain may not be du to the surgery but it may be drug induced "Gastritis" may be the cause, hope this information helps.
I find this answer helpful
