Patient's question:
I feel like I have very bad bad breath. I wash my face in the morning and at night, and I chew gum after meals, but there's still a smell in my mouth. I'm currently a boarder, and some medicine is hard to get, and it's not convenient to cook medicine. Can you tell me if there are any simple methods to treat it?Doctor's answer:
The possibility of bad breath is due to stomach fire. You can take some Niuhuang Qingwei pills and avoid spicy and irritating foods. Additionally, you can visit an oral surgeon, as most cases are caused by oral diseases. You can also try lozenges like Huasu.For those with bad breath, while seeking symptomatic treatment, you can also use home remedies as supplementary therapy. It's crucial to avoid extreme hunger or overeating and never binge on food in daily life.
