How do I remove this embedded stain from bathroom sink?
The stain around the drain won’t come off w/scrubbing pads or pumice stone. It’s a tough stain. Seems to be embedded.
Hi! Clean the drain, first. If it's a sink where hair goes down the drain, like in the bathroom, you need to fish out any trapped hair with a hair grabber. There will be mildew, mold, soap, etc. caught in it. Then pour a small amount of baking soda and then pour vinegar. It will bubble like crazy. Once it dies down, run the hot water to make sure it is draining well. That should take care of any odor. Good luck and stay safe!
It all depends whether it's the kitchen or bathroom sink. Here are some solutions

Pour a half a cup of bicard down into the drain and add 1 cup of white vinegar. It will all foam up, leave this in the drain for 30 minutes then flush with hot water.
Pour ½ cup baking soda into the drain opening.
Pour ½ cup white vinegar into the drain. The vinegar disinfects and foams when mixed with the baking soda to work through the pipes and clean the walls. Let the foam work for about 30 minutes.
Pour 1 gallon boiling water down the drain to flush out leftover residue.
Run hot water in sink for a couple minutes. Turn the water off and sprinkle baking soda in sink and drain (both sides). Let sit for about 10 minutes and then add vinegar. Let sit for 5 minutes and then run garbage disposal and clean sink with dish soap. This is my go-to way for getting rid of sink smells.

Use lemon to clean the disposal
I pour baking soda in the drain followed by vinegar. It will foam up and I let it stand for 15 minutes . I then pour boiling water down the drain several times.
Pour some baking soda and vinegar down the drain the follow it up with boiling water.
I'm assuming that you've tried every chemical to buy but it may be as simple as cleaning around the inside of your garbage disposer! Using a disposable sponge wet it thoroughly with water & cleanser then, making sure there is no electricity going to the disposer, stick your hand down inside the disposer & scrub all around & especially on the top of the unit & the rubber stopper! That area doesn't really get all the garbage that gets whirled around when turning the disposer on & water doesn't get to it rinse it thoroughly enough. There are some products to buy that foam & get rid of some of it but, again, not as much as this needs to be!
I have always used baking soda and vinegar :)
