Fetor hepaticus

Fetor hepaticus

What is fetor hepaticus? Fetor hepaticus occurs when your breath has a strong, musty smell. It's a sign that your liver is having trouble doing its job of filtering out toxic substances, usually due to severe liver disease. As a result, sulfur substances end up in your bloodstream and can make their way to your lungs.
