comment
Urine does not usually have a strong smell, but the odor may be altered by a number of factors including some diseases. Foul-smelling urine may be due to bacteria that have caused a urinary tract infection. Sweet-smelling urine may be a sign of uncontrolled diabetes or more rarely a disease of metabolism. Liver disease and certain metabolic disorders may cause musty-smelling urine.
