Patient's question:
My throat has been filled with a sticky mucus similar to phlegm all day, which is green or yellow, and I have bad breath. I often feel like there's something stuck in my throat. I want to know what illness this could be, tonsillitis? Pharyngitis? What medicine can help? Does bad breath have anything to do with the spleen?Doctor's answer:
Generally, phlegm is caused by tonsillitis, and taking some anti-inflammatory medication can help. The latest research has found that 90% of recurring halitosis patients suffer from oral problems. Conditions such as gingivitis, periodontitis, and cavities can all lead to the recurrence of halitosis. Typically, oral Chinese herbal medicine, such as rose, is used for treatment, with the most significant effects. Wishing you a speedy recovery! There are many methods for treating halitosis, but since patients have different symptoms, the treatment methods also vary. Therefore, it is recommended that patients seek early diagnosis and treatment upon noticing symptoms.
