What are the symptoms of atrophic rhinitis?

Atrophic rhinitis can cause a foul-smelling crust to form inside your nostrils. Your nose may bleed if you try to dislodge it. You may also have bad breath (halitosis). You might not notice these odors, but others will.

Other symptoms of atrophic rhinitis include:

  • Chronic nosebleeds (epistaxis).
  • Nasal discharge of pus.
  • Nasal dryness and crusting.
  • Sinus infections (sinusitis).
