Patient's question:
Dry mouth, bitter taste in the mouth, bad breath, a foreign body sensation in the throat, teeth marks on the tongue, and white tongue coating—what could be the cause?Doctor's answer:
A foreign body sensation in the throat is likely caused by tonsillitis. It can be checked, and it is recommended to visit the ear, nose, and throat department of the hospital for examination and coordinated testing. After diagnosis, medication can be used for treatment. In addition to treating bad breath, it is advised that patients pay attention to their diet in daily life and maintain a positive mood to enhance their physical condition and slow down the recovery process. When patients face the problem of bad breath, we should actively take treatment measures and not avoid seeking medical attention. If the bad breath does not improve after treatment, it is necessary to promptly switch to a new treatment plan.
