Question 1

my my burps smell like sewage what's causes that?

Accepted Answer

Gastroenteritis: You may have an infection in your bowels, did you travel recently ? See your doctor, it needs to be treated.

Question 2

my stomache feels sick and my burps smell like sewage all day. just got off flu, is this normal?

Accepted Answer

Doesn't sound normal: If you are not severely constipated this may be bacterial imbalance or dysbiosis.  Could be H. Pylori.  Could be bacterial overgrowth in the small intestine.  I would advise having your primary provider or a gastroenterologist evaluate things before allowing it to go to far.

Question 3

i have been going to the bathroom a lot running stool lots of gas burping up foul smell smelling like sewage and i did go out of town for 8 days to detroit michigan?

Accepted Answer

Bowel rest: Start with 24 hours of fluids only -no usual food items.
Then start the Brat diet. B for bannanas, rice, applesauce, tea and toast. This is a soft diet to let the bowel rest and heal itself.
If you still have diarrhea can take Imodium over the counter from the pharmacy. If still having the runs see a doctor for stool culture and sensitiviy testing at the lab. Michigan water supply should be fine.

Question 4

all day i have been burping up what smells like raw sewage and throwing up. i have had issues with bad heart burn for years but this is new. ?

Accepted Answer

Burping: This is usually from undigested food - If you have any distention or severe bloating of the abdomen with pain - this could be a sign of an intestinal obstruction.  
If this continues follow up with your physician.  If signs of distention go to the emergency room

Question 7

why my urine smell like sewage in between water?

Accepted Answer

Infection?: Sounds like a possible urinary tract infection. Sometimes urine can smell foul due to foods we eat. Asparagus contains a sulphurous compound called mercaptan (which is also found in rotten eggs, onions and garlic). When your digestive system breaks down mercaptan, by-products are released that cause the strange smell. When it's an infection usually you have burning or other complaints. Go see MD

Question 8

i have a clear mucus in my slavia that smells really bad like spoiled food or sewage what is it how can i get rid of of it?

Accepted Answer

Possible sinusitis : One of the more common causes of bad breath is sinusitis. It doesn't have to be a bacterial sinusitis. It can be caused by a virus or allergies. Often you may feel a drip down the back of your throat and pressure when you lean forward. You should see your doctor to determine whether or not this is the case.

Question 9

i smell my bowels  tru my skin? fresh out a shower i can make a closed room smell like sewage. 7up is like the only thing that helps me get the gas up and or a good bm twice a day.

Accepted Answer

Need a gastric check: What you describe is certainly abnormal. If you believe that you really can smell feces through your skin etc, then you need to see a gastroenterologist asap. This type of doctor can check to see what is wrong and work to alleviate it. Good luck.
