What should I do if I always have thick tongue coating and bad breath in my mouth?

Patient's question:

Halitosis in the mouth. Always bad breath. Severe tongue coating, stomach has always been bad. What's going on?

Doctor's answer:

In your case, there might be issues with poor gastrointestinal function and excessive stomach heat. Of course, bad breath could also be due to conditions like gingivitis, pharyngitis, etc. It's recommended to eat less spicy food, reduce late-night overtime, avoid drinking beer, and not smoke. If you tend to get easily irritable or have a tendency to "overheat," you can drink more chrysanthemum or honeysuckle tea to clear heat and detoxify. Also, eat more fruits and vegetables and maintain a cheerful mood. After each meal, you should wash your face. There are many treatments for bad breath caused by bacterial growth, but since symptoms vary among patients, the diagnostic methods used will also differ. Therefore, patients need to have a timely and thorough examination and diagnosis to receive appropriate treatment.
