My fingers suddenly started smelling like garlic, and i definitely have not eaten or been around garlic in the past few days. medical cause for this?

No: If you're taking supplements, see if stopping any of those may help. Possibly certain other herbs or foods, but no medical illness causes you to smell like garlic.
