Patient's question:
The baby had diarrhea a few days ago and also caught a cold with a fever. She went for acupuncture, and the diarrhea stopped, then she took cold medicine. Recently, she has been feeling bloated and not eating. The hospital prescribed probiotics for her. Today, I noticed a smell coming from her mouth, like rotten vegetables. She had two bowel movements today, but none yesterday?Doctor's answer:
The main reasons for children's bad breath are the accumulation of milk or leftover food debris in the mouth that hasn't been cleaned promptly; large cavities in the teeth with decaying debris; inflamed or cracked gums, or oral or gastrointestinal inflammation. It is also important to observe how bad breath worsens during colds. In addition to receiving proper treatment for bad breath, patients need to pay attention to care aspects, such as maintaining a proper diet and keeping a positive mood. At the same time, patients should also choose a reputable hospital for diagnosis to achieve good treatment results.
