Sinusitis, when will the stink it stop?

[BobbyBiscuits]

I'll start by saying happy new year everyone. ❤️

I've had a horrible cold since Dec 23rd. It's finally clearing up but my sinusitis is lingering. I've syringed it with salt water but basically my nose stinks!

I just got my sense of taste and smell, but every time I blowy nose or bend down I can smell rotting flesh/eggs/decay. It's deffo my sinuses as I have no dental decay.
It may well be exacerbated by my nose which is broken several times.

It's making me feel so nauseous. I'm glad the infection is going away but the odour is appalling. 🤢

Does anyone have any cures for this stink? Any substance to wash the nasal cavities with?
I am eating chilli and garlic to try and cancel it out.

I hope for any help I can get. Unless I just have to wait. 🙄

Thanks everyone! X

Its probably your tonsils. Give them a thorough poke and see if any yellowy/green stuff comes out.

I do, depends if you like big raw onions?

@Meltedwelly Thank you. I don't think it's tonsils as there is no gunk or pain or swelling anywhere near the throat. It's purely nose/face- sinuses. I'm not going to 'poke' down my throat anyway as I think I'd be sick, lol.

@ohyesido thank you, haha. I actually love raw onions. Eat them on all my salads. So what do I do with them?
