[|Human|] I have an ear infection and sinus infection, I am taking antibiotic and decongestant, but I have recently noticed when blowing my nose to relieve the yellow confession the mucus has a strong pungent musty odor? Is there anything I should be doing differently?
[|AI|]  Hi, welcome to Chat Doctor forum. Sinus infection causes thick yellow foul smelling mucus to accumulate in the sinus cavity. Since it is thick, it usually will not come out. But, when we treat it with antibiotics and bucolic agents, it begins to loosen, and comes out on blowing. You need not worry. Just continue your Chat Doctor. It will resolve slowly. Frequent steam inhalation through nose will help in loosening the mucus. Avoid cold/dusty atmosphere. I hope you will find this information useful. Thank you.
