Patient's question:
My friend has the problem of bad breath, even though he washes his face every day, it still hasn't improved. He's afraid to get close to people and is very troubled. What should he do?Doctor's answer:
If you have bad breath, I suggest you see a dentist. Most of the time, it's caused by oral health issues. Generally, it could be due to: gingivitis, cavities, or large tartar deposits. Usually, an ultrasonic dental cleaning can significantly improve the condition. You can also try chewing Huasu tablets. However, this may also be accompanied by digestive issues, so I recommend you see a gastroenterologist as well. There might also be stomach problems causing the digestive issues. All of these need to be addressed. Additionally, avoid eating onions, garlic, hot pots, etc.Patients facing the distress of bad breath should actively take treatment measures and not avoid seeking medical attention. If the bad breath persists despite treatment, it's important to promptly switch to an alternative treatment plan.
