She needs mental evaluation
If you don't understand something kindly shut up and let informed people chip in, there is no shame in that.
OP it's a normal thing among kids and with time she'll learn to control her sense of smell when she starts smelling things like foods,perfumes etc she won't even remember again.
My kid was like that with creams

Hope she is not possess because cleanliness is next to godliness. Check well.

In good times 99.99% of females want BAD men:

This females in dia prime years will date the "baddest" dudes because they're fun & exciting

In bad times they want GOOD men:

Then reality strikes ... sexual market value don low ,Then the female is washed up, that's when she wants a "real" man, to step up & save her from her lifetime of bad choices.

MAY GOD PROTECT ALL THE SIMPS and senseless men.

Sorry to derail


hmmm cool

This isn't a joke..

I've been with the young family during this lockdown period and I observed her closely..

When someone stands up from the chair, she quickly put her nose there. Likes to smell one's fart as well as puts her nose close to rotten food, dirty socks, shoes etc..

It's getting out of hand and the mom is worried now..

Is this normal? Is this a rare medical condition? Will she change this habit over time? What can we do to help her?

Kindly advice

She might be autistic but the spectrum will have to be determined. The smell stimulates her sensories. So please continue to monitor her for signs like been antisocial, like been by herself, don't like people touching her, covering her ears when in a noisy place. I pray she okay.

It might seem normal for her age but please spank her and make her know its abnormal. So that she won't grow up and join those perverse people. Funny enough, if you caution her that time, she'll tell you that was how God created her and she's been doing it from small without seeing anyone that did it.

It's normal. When I was young I used to like the carbondioxide fume that comes out of car. If a car is on I bend to perceive the fumes... I loved itgrin
She'll outgrow it no worries! It's a natural phenomenon.

How about providing her with good scents like spraying perfume on handkerchief, sweet smell of pastries and flowers? Etc etc.

If she's exposed to both types of scent her brain will by default prefer the good smell and with time she'll abhor the nasty stink she's having a liking for now.
spraying perfume in handkerchief is deadly and can kill toddler.

It’s not a medical condition
I did something almost like this when I was a child,when my parents sleep then,I love putting my fingers in their armpit and inhale the smell until they noticed and started beating me for it,I had to stop
So..you just have to beat her (not hard,like a spank and some serious scolding)when you notice such,she will stop I tell you
grin

Not everything is demonic. But such traits could be demonic.

The child is not evil, only infected and it isn't her fault.

Don't worry, she will outgrow it.. Just watch and see, when I was young like around 7 years old, I loved the smell of fuel, emissions from exhaust pipes of automobiles, used to stand at the back of my dad's Peugeot 504 just to enjoy the smell, but as I grew older, I outgrew it..
