After eating for a while, I have severe bad breath. How can it be treated?

Patient's question:

After eating for a while, I have bad breath, and it's also quite severe in the morning. It's been like this for 7 years. There's always phlegm where my nose and throat meet. How can I treat it?

Doctor's answer:

Morning bad breath, with phlegm, this situation may be considered due to oral diseases, pharyngitis, etc. It is recommended to have a dental check-up to examine the mouth for issues such as cavities, gingivitis, tartar, etc., as these can cause bad breath. Excessive phlegm may be caused by pharyngitis. For severe bad breath patients, it is advised to seek medical attention promptly and follow the doctor's advice for timely treatment. Avoid changing medications arbitrarily, as this may have the opposite effect on the treatment.
