Why does an abscess smell bad?

An abscess smells bad primarily due to the presence of bacteria that produce foul-smelling gases as they break down tissue and pus. The dead tissue and pus within the abscess can also harbor anaerobic bacteria, which contribute to the unpleasant odor. Additionally, the accumulation of waste products and toxins from the bacterial infection can exacerbate the smell. This combination of factors results in the characteristic foul odor associated with abscesses.
