Related for Ketubot 149:7

כל מומין שפוסלין וכו': תנא הוסיפו עליהן זיעה ושומא וריח הפה והני בכהני לא פסלי והתנן הזקן והחולה והמזוהם ותנן מומין אלו בין קבועין בין עוברין פסולין באדם

All defects which disqualify etc. A Tanna taught: To these they added [excessive] perspiration, a mole and offensive breath. Do these not disqualify priests? Surely we have learned, “The old, the sick and the polluted” and we have also learned, “These defects whether permanent or impermanent, disqualify a person [from serving in the Temple]!”

Tosefta Ketubot

All physical defects that make a priest unfit also make a wife unfit [i.e. if she didn't disclose them in the betrothal negotiations, she is not betrothed, see previous halakhah]. Wives have more [than priests]: [Also] smell of mouth, smell of sweat, and warts with no hair.
