Hi,
Welcome to HCM,
It seems that there is acute sinusitis containig full of discharge and this type of smell coming out.
Go for x-ray of Para Nasal Sinuses and find out any infective exudate is collected.
Go go for Vicks vapor inhalation.
Do listerine gargle.
Go for antibiotic medicine course after consulting your doctor.
Ok and bye.
