Hi
Welcome to Health care magic
Bad smell in mouth and nose is because of infections of the oral cavity, nose or paranasal sinuses. This requires treatment by the use of antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs.
You need to consult your ENT doctor and dentist for proper evaluation and treatment.
Till you consult your doctor you can use oral cleaning agents for relief from symptoms.
