smelly sink, please help?

i've just moved house and whenever i run the taps in my kitchen and bathroom sink it lets out a bit of an odour from the plug hole.

does anyone have any suggestions

Have you checked the U bend , if there is anything in there that is causing self syphonage, peice of material or string which is causing the water that should be running away from the sink or bath to cause smell to travel back up and cause smell in sink or bath, also has the wast pipe got enough incline on it for the water to drain away fast enough , hope this has helped

get a plumber in. It can be any of probably 30 problems.
