Common Questions and Answers about Smell ammonia in nose

ammonia

Avatar f tn When I do any cardiovascular exercise and start to get winded, I get a very strong ammonia like smell in my nose, like it is coming out of my lungs. This smell is not coming from outside my body, but internally. It's almost like the alcohol smell that goes up the back of your nose when you drink a shot of liquor. I have had this all my life and just sort of assumed it was the same for everybody, but apparently other people don't have the same thing. What could be causing it?
12773 tn?1328913186 The ammonia smell is in my nose and nowhere else, not not urine, not my skin, Its strange. And I drink 8 - 10 glasses of water a day.
Avatar m tn I just used my neti pot for the first time in weeks..I felt a strange burning in the back of my head and almost gagged from the ammonia smell in my sinus'. It is starting to fade now, but I must admit it scared me. Anyone have any clues?
Avatar n tn Hi, have you by any chance figured out what the problem was? I'm suffering of the same annoying bleach/ammonia smell in my nose. Reading about liver/kidney failure and brain tumors on google.. doesn't exactly help... Please tell me you figured it out.
Avatar m tn I've got some unconfirmed alcoholic liver disease but I've noticed you guys in the hep-c forum really seem to know your stuff. I'm currently half way through a slow alcohol detox (weaning down/one month) and have developed a funny transient smell in my nose that also comes out in upper body sweat (not underarm/groin). Sometimes it is so strong it even burns my nose a bit, and others can smell it on my breath when I work closely with them.
Avatar f tn I have never been told that I smell of ammonia. My wife has a very ultra sensitive nose and she would tell me if I smelled like ammonia. Right now I really don't think its ammonia but it could be a combination of different gases.
Avatar m tn What can cause a ammonia smell in sweat and colon? and raw skin lines on each side of the scrotum between the inner thighs and pus bumps.
Avatar f tn Another symptom the article gave was an ammonia smell in the nose. Someone commented once that they smelled ammonia. I truly believe this is the cause of my problems. Another thing that surprised me is that I remember taking pepto bismuth and it would make some difference. I read that pepto bismuth, activated charcoal and gas x are all good . I think I will follow a low sulphur diet and see if it helps. Joint pain is also a symptom which I do have and doctors has said it is not arthritis.
Avatar f tn s mainly the smell of the processing chemicals (ammonia) that is bad for you. As long as where you get your color done is nice and ventilated you should be fine. If you go to a professional, some of them even have special dyes without the harsh ammonia smell that might be a better option for you. You can also highlight/lowlight, less dye gets on your scalp when they pull your hair through a cap. Hope this helps!

Avatar m tn What can cause a ammonia smell in sweat and Colin? the girl had the same smell.
Avatar m tn I notice this ammonia smell with my sweat.Now I always sweat heavy when I work out. But this ammonia smell new. Other than this smell aim fine losing some weight.
Avatar f tn I believe that the heat from the coffee opens up our pores in our skin and that ammonia like smell is released more than it usually is. You know the smell I'm talking about, the one that makes people itch their nose and cough. I could be wrong, but like I said earlier, this is only my opinion.
Avatar f tn Since then I had not had any problems until last week when I again used windex to clean some mirrors. Since then I have had this lingering chemical smell in my nose off and on. Is this an allergic reaction to household cleansers? I am afraid to use anything to clean with now as it is extremely annoying to be smelling this odour all the time. What is happening to cause this lingering smell in my nose when it is not there.
Avatar n tn A couple of years ago, I was having a terrible problem with odor -- ammonia and just kind of a dead smell was oozing out of my pores. It really was terrible and even though I showered all the time the smell was still there. Finally, I came to realize it was Tramadol causing the odor because when I quit taking them, the odor went away. I've also heard others talk about body odor and sometimes it can come from drinking alcohol if you have cirrhosis.
Avatar f tn I'm a color specialist and it is Ok to color your hair. . You Can use ammonia free if you are scared about the ammonia but you can use normal color as well. Be In well ventilated area or you can wear a mask to cover your nose and mouth so you don't smell the fumes. . Especially If you get highlights. I have heard your hair might go funny colors due to hormones but all of the colors I have done on pregnant ladies turned out awesome. . So I guess it just effects people differently.
Avatar m tn Hi guys! I was just wondering if anyone who suffers from the strange body odor as well as the PATM reactions found anything that helps lesson the smell?? I'm suffering really badly with this strange sort of musky sweet burnt smell coming out of my body! Not from just the usual places like the armpits or feet etc but everywhere!! The more I seem to wash, the worse it gets!!
Avatar f tn Bacteria that contaminate the urine will convert chemicals in the urine into smelling chemicals that are responsible for the distinctive smell, such as ammonia. You can give his urine sample for testing. With a kidney stone chances of infection are high. Some foods like proteins cause the excretion of nitrogen compounds (ammonia and urea). Hence these foods can be reduced in diet. Hope these tips help. If symptoms persist consult an urologist.
Avatar f tn Hello there, i have this bad odor in my nose i smell it often but people around smell it always, distanced people even smell it. Because of this i don't work and also go to public places, the funniest side is that i have a crush on a girl but i cant tell her,truth is that i'm not ugly, doctors are a bit useless in my community, any home remedy or even spiritual help will do.
377412 tn?1283809646 I say definitely have it checked if it has an ammonia smell or fishy or the discharge is white...or yellowish. I've researched info on Bacteria Vagnoisis and it is common among women and can happen during pregnancy. It is an overgrowth of "bac" that is already in vag area, but does and can be treated. Thing is, it can come back. Do search on ask.com. I wish I could remember the site I found where the women who were preg were extremly open with their info.
Avatar f tn I don't think its the smell, but the ammonia? Theres something in the cat pee that can harm the baby, but its not the smell itself. If you must clean the litter box wear a medical mask and wash your hands and arms really well. Even change clothes if possible.
Avatar f tn because its unneccessary chemicals but as long as youre in a well ventilated area and use ammonia free dye it wont harm the baby
