Bad Breath Halitosis Forum

I'm sorry it got worse for you! I am not too excited yet just because this may be temporary, or I just can't detect it in myself. Right now I can notice some, but it's also because I have not brushed my teeth yet after eating and have not used any rinses yet today. I usually still need to use a ...

I have a Hydrofloss machine from my dentist but it has sat there unused for months. Interesting that you use it in the morning instead of at night. I was using it at night. I do have issues with periodontal disease so maybe I will give this a try. I stopped because it added too much time to my ...

About a month ago, I had my first bout of covid which lasted about a week (I have 4 vaccines/boosters in me, including a bivalent one!). It was a "mild" case but I felt like total crap around days 3-4 before I started to feel better. It felt like a really severe cold. Towards the end, I also lost my ...

tried Betaine HCL many years ago for quite aawhile but it didn't do a thing for my bb so I stopped.

I wasn't but just came back so seeing this 5 years later now! LOL

This study seems to show it helps with oral malodour...

what did you get allergy shots for?
it does sound like it could be PND. i also have mucus. you can sometimes also feel snot dripping down the back of your throat, but not always.

What kind of allergies do you have? I am starting to pinpoint my bb down to this. I almost always have mucus in my throat and was wondering about GERD and other kinds of reflux. Then I started wondering if it comes from allergies. At first I thought food (it might still be but I have to test that ...

I tried using the bismuth today (morning) and also last night before bed but it didn't really work for me. I will keep trying though to see...

redtongue - how have things been going with your bb since being on your treatment? please keep us updated. i am going to see my doctor again soon, and ask to be referred to an ENT and then also try to deal with allergies.
