Patient's question:
About two or three weeks ago, I started having bad halitosis (severe bad breath). Recently, I've been coughing intermittently. I don't have a cold. When I cough, it lasts for a good half hour. No other symptoms or pain.Doctor's answer:
Halitosis is primarily caused by conditions such as stomach Qi ascending, gingivitis, periodontitis, and dental caries. Your condition may be due to Yin deficiency and internal heat, stomach upset, or excessive stomach fire. You can have a thorough examination of your stomach and seek early treatment for your specific condition.Additionally, during the treatment of halitosis, the patient's dietary habits and care are also very important. The patient must digest vitamins, prevent stomach upset, and maintain a light diet to avoid unnecessary harm. I hope the above answer can help you. Thank you.
