Canada- My family in law have never cleaned their dishwasher (obvs) and I decided I'd clean it as a gesture of kindness.

I decided to wrap it up after cutting into it and getting a foul smell. Now I'm worried I might have been smelling some toxic or something really bad for me. My left sinuses feel strange to be honest. I stopped and turned on a hot cycle with vinegar, food catcher off. To be honest the dishwasher is stinking.

I haven't touched it and was wondering what people would recommend to deal with it.

The filter is still on in the back but it looks like black stuff built up on it... I didn't take a photo but I could or a second opinion?
