How to deal with bad breath caused by hepatitis

Patient's question:

I already have infectious hepatitis, and recently I suddenly have bad breath, dry mouth, and yellow urine, but my face isn't yellow—could this be related to liver-related diseases? What should I do about bad breath with hepatitis?

Doctor's answer:

Most cases of bad breath in patients with hepatitis B minor positive are caused by oral diseases. The mouth is the starting point of the digestive tract and is also connected to the respiratory system. Therefore, some diseases of the digestive and respiratory systems can cause bad breath, such as digestive disorders, gastroenteritis, diarrhea, and constipation, which may lead to varying degrees of bad breath. It is recommended to go to a regular hospital for examination and treatment, and receive symptomatic treatment. Pay attention to oral hygiene in daily life, avoid spicy foods, and maintain a light diet.
