Patient's question:
Long-term dry mouth, bitter taste, and bad breath, especially worse in the afternoon. Eating too much causes stomach heat and bloating, and constipation. How to solve it?Doctor's answer:
Usually believed that bitter taste is related to abnormal bile metabolism. Some cancer patients may experience a bitter taste due to impaired microcirculation of the tongue, where the taste buds on the tip of the tongue that sense sweetness become swollen, and the composition of saliva changes. There are many treatments for bad breath, but since the symptoms of patients vary, the treatment methods also differ. Therefore, it is necessary for patients to be diagnosed as soon as possible so that the correct treatment can be administered.
