Hello doctor,
I am 38 years old, male. Whenever I am about to get multiple sneezes just before I get burning and intense pain inside my nose and sinuses. Especially if am around the kitchen or anywhere in the house, especially if frying is happening in kitchen. My sneeze smells bad most of the time. What is the treatment?
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
It is clear that you have allergic rhinitis, especially for indoor substances as fried oil and maybe carpets or anything else at home. You need to use intranasal corticosteroid spray once daily as Avamys (Fluticasone furoate) spray. But for the bad smell, I need to know if you have a sputum coming out after sneezing and if it is present, what is its color?

Thank you doctor,
I have no sputum at all. Just a clear sneeze but it smells. In fact my nose is always dry and small dried whitish snot is always clogged in my left nostril.
Hi,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
The treatment is as I told you but I advise you to do CT scan for your nose and sinuses. Do it and show me the result.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
