How can I get rid of my persistent bad breath?
Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I am a 37-year-old male. I have had bad breath and when I talk people around me itch their noses. My problem started five years ago and I was expecting it to stop someday, but it has not stopped yet. There is some plaque on my teeth. Now I prefer not to talk with my friends. When I talk they itch their nose. I am in serious trouble.
Kindly help.
Thank you.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
Thank you for your query.
Do not worry. I have experience in handling halitosis (bad breath) cases. I can give you suitable remedies as well as therapy to get rid of your chronic bad breath issue. See the thing is that there may be a local or an underlying factor responsible for such stale or foul-smelling breath. I suggest you answer a few questions mentioned below:
- Did you get any dental procedures like scaling (cleaning) done till now?
- Are you a vegetarian or a non-vegetarian and what kind of general diet are you inclined to?
- If you are on any medications, particularly in the last five years as you said, do you experience any change in your taste, bleeding gums, or any other oral issues?
I will give you an accurate diagnosis with remedies and prescription advice which you can implement after you have answered these questions.
I hope this has helped you.
Thank you.
