Nose Smelling Like Mildew All Time. Is It Due To Infection?

Hello I moved to Southern California Inland Empire about a year and a half ago from the east coast. I began noticing not long after getting here that the inside of my nose started to smell like mildew all the time. Somtimes its stronger than others... I figured it could possibly be mucus mildewing on the longer nose hairs but it lingers after i cut them.... Infection? thank for any insight - Frankie

Hi friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic

Allergy or infection is likely
Anti-histamine and/or decongestants may help
The best option is to be examined by a Nose (Ear and Throat) specialist.

Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
