As I've promised to report back by the end of the month, I am still bb free, thanks to Pharmol Zn mouthwash and my usual oral hygiene, toothpaste, baking soda brushing,scraping the very back of the tongue with thinner tongue scraper, after each meal, if possible, I gargle with Pharmol Zn mouthwash ...

Dr. i was just asking what kind of shop sells zinc chloride ? is it available in ordinary medical stores or we should look in chemical suppliers ?? at least i can say now that you have understood the question . You can find it in pharmacy store. In my country, chemical stores sell it and normally i...

Dear doctor,

Can we also use ZnCl2 to gargle our throat for Type-2 halitosis?

Dear Dr Aydinmur,

What is the key treatment for Type -2 halitotis related to oro-nasopharynx?

I got a surgery 3 weeks ago including deviated septum, concha bullosa and broaden the hole in nasal passage. It was not as painful as tonsillectomy and quickly recovered after a couple of days. I am not cured but can say my bb decreased considerably. My halitosis before was hard to describe, it's to...

daan did you wait a while after using these toothpastes before you gargled with the chlorhexidine? 3 weeks before I went on the FESS surgery, I brush my teeth with zinc containing toothpaste (zinc gluconat, zinc citrat, zinc oxit), wait nearly an hour, then gargle with chlohexidine, let it spread o...

Are you saying it's only your BB you (yourself) can't smell during flu or does this apply to any smells? If it applies to all smells then isn't it simply because of the typical impairment of the sense of smell that usually accompanies flu? But if your BB comes from somewhere in your nose or sinuses...

[/quote]I too never had good oral hygiene in my childhood/teens this seems to be the case with other members in this forum too,have you got any receding gums?[/quote] Yes, I have some receding gums as I sometimes feel pain while brushing. My dentists said they are not so serious that need filling an...

Went and see my ENT today after finishing a course of antibiotics. She suggested me to have sinus endoscopic surgery. It could be the day after tomorrow but I need time to arrange my job so I appointed the surgery in next month. The surgery will be FESS + concha bullosa + deviate septum. I asked her...

I just wonder if there is anyone here being cured after sinus operation to correct concha bulosa/contact point/deviate septum? And is there anybody have sinusitis without specific symptoms of sinusitis like PND, headache, nose congestion but only halitosis? I think of going for sinusitis operation b...

Daan, From what you have told us, you do have POST-nasal drip, which goes down your throat. This mucus accumulates in your throat and turns stale because it is never removed. It is like garbage sitting in your garbage pail and is never thrown out. Imagine the smell! When air is exhaled it has to pa...

when I got flu, bb also temporarily disappear. Can't see the pictures. It could be from the paranasal sinuses. If you have mucus building up, it's a good idea to get it cleaned out if you have the money. The ENT will widen your holes leading to the nasal passages, allowing air to flow in and mucous...

I am now running out of direction and do not know what to do next. After a long time of hesitation to use antibiotics, I recently tried Amoxillin and Metronidazole for 2 weeks. The course stoped 1 week ago and my bb is coming back. So my problem is bacteria, but antibiotics is not the appropriate cu...

wait and see how clarithomycin work for you and try to find if you have h.p or not as clarithomycin alone may not be strong enough to completely eradicate H.P muscosal thickening might also be an area to look into it because it show an infection in respiratory tract, together with your pnd, all coul...
