This bad smell you are experiencing when you sneeze could be due to a condition called atrophic rhinitis. In atrophic rhinitis, the lining of the nasal passages becomes inflamed and thins out, leading to a foul odor. It can be caused by various factors such as chronic sinus infections, nasal polyps, or environmental irritants. To help manage this condition, you can try using saline nasal sprays to keep the nasal passages moist and prevent the buildup of dried mucus. In severe cases, your doctor may prescribe antibiotics or nasal corticosteroids to reduce inflammation. If this issue persists or worsens, it is advisable to consult with an ENT specialist for further evaluation and management.
