Does having a cut in your nose cause bad breath?!


Question: Does having a cut in your nose cause bad breath?
Recently every time I blow my nose I see dry blood and incidentally around the same time people started covering their nose around me. Im just wondering if it is connect. I dont have bad hygiene, wear clean clothes and shower everyday so I know its not my body odor... I dont know why but blood still comes out my nose every now and then and I sometimes have a foul smell in my nose... And I also have post nasal drip.

Answers:

Yes, a cut on d nasal cavity can cause offensive exhalated air prior to bacterial growth e.g. Staph. Aureus. To treat this situation u hav to visit a medical diagonostic laboratory for nasal fluid culture and sensitivity.



Abdullah is right it could be a staph infection aka methicillin resistant staphycocollus aureus (sp)

You can spread this around to people through touch and really should be confined to a room while you are being treated. in the hospital they will keep you away from other patients and will not come in the room without full gown on and masks and eye covering.

It can be hard to find but there still are some antibiotics that can fight it.

It could be that or some other infection.

Do you find you bruise easily or have alot of broken blood vessels? aka (purpura) ?

You could have low platelets for some reason. It causes alot of nose bleeds.

you need to see a doctor and see what they think and get some blood tests!

good luck man!



Go and see a doctor mate, it's not completely normal to bleed that much from your nose.
