you most likely have lime build up in your hot water heater. you need to flush it out and change the heating elements. Water heaters often have a sacrificial rod in them that is installed to prolong the life of the heater. This rod brakes down over time and in the right water condition can make a veary bad smell in your water. I have seen it back up into the cold water feed line and make it small bad also. It will often be worse with the more time that has passed with no use of the water from the heater. This rod is installed from the top and there is usually an access so that the rod can be removed or replaced.
