My husband is 32, he has a horrible odor coming from just his nose. I can tell if he has been in a room because it lingers so long. our bedroom is 28 feet long and the WHOLE room smells like his nose odor. It smells like spoiled parmesan cheese, and its a very sharp smell. He cannot smell it himself. I have known him for three years and it has been on and off. he had surgery in December 2013 to fix a deviated septum. I thought that might cure the horrible smell. But no it was back a few months after the surgery stronger then ever. He said that he still has a stuffy nose most of the time and using nasal spray like patanse and Flonase don t help they make the smell worse actually. His ENT did a ct of his head and if there was any polups making his nose stink would they have found them? I am so sure that it has something to do with his sinuses. Also he went urgent care last week because of a pain in his back that was on his lower left side and went around to his lower left abdomen. So the doc took a ct with contrast to look for a kidney stone and didn t fine one. HE DID find that his lungs look congested. They ended up saying there not sure maybe a prostatitis and gave him a months worth of cipro 500. And that antibiotic is not helping the smell either because it as worst as ever. Could he have a fungul infection in his lungs cause nasal odor? Im at a loss and I don t even want to be in the same room as him because it smells so bad. please help!
