first try pouting baking soda followed by white vinegar down the drain.If that does not work you will have to open the pipe underneath
Mix a paste of lemon juice and baking soda. Pour it in the drain and let sit overnight. Should help a lot.
If you have organic materials decomposing = bacteria, then buy enzymes which eat organic materials and spray them into the drain. { I get mine at the Soap Exchange.} If you have sulfur in your water [rotten egg smell] then google the fix for that.
Pour a cup of white vinegar down the drain and let it sit for a couple of hours. Helps a lot.
1 c. Baking soda, 1 cup vinegar. Pour down drain and let set 30 to 45 min. Follow with a kettle or saucepan of boiling water. Repeat if needed. Greasy soaps contribute to this problem.
Remove and clean the P trap. This is a regular maintenance item that should be done once or twice a year. Make sure you have a bucket handy before you pull off the trap
Take out the drain plug itself. You will probably gag but, scrub it off, soak it in bleach till the black is gone and put it back. No more smell if you do it when you clean the bathroom.
Try putting vinegar down it
