I've had bad breath since I was a child, and I've tried a lot of methods but it didn't work

Having bad breath since childhood can be caused by poor oral hygiene, periodontitis, etc. Patients need to be treated according to the cause.

Causes and treatments:

1. Poor oral hygiene: If you don't pay attention to personal hygiene or brush your teeth properly, it may lead to food residues remaining on the surface of your teeth, and bacteria can also breed and cause bad breath. It is recommended to develop a good habit of brushing your teeth in the morning and evening, and rinse your mouth in time after meals to avoid food accumulation in the mouth for a long time and cause odor.

2. Gingivitis: It is usually caused by local inflammation, which will lead to swelling and pain in the gum area, and if it is not actively and effectively treated, it may develop into periodontitis, which will cause the above symptoms. You can take drugs such as metronidazole tablets or amoxicillin capsules under the guidance of a doctor to alleviate the condition, and you can also use compound chlorhexidine gargle to help improve.

3. Gastrointestinal diseases: such as chronic gastritis, peptic ulcer, etc., when the secretion of gastric acid is excessive, it will reflux to the esophagus and even the throat, resulting in a putrid taste in the mouth, and then forming the symptoms of bad breath. Omeprazole enteric-coated capsules or rabeprazole sodium enteric-coated capsules can be taken orally according to the doctor's instructions to inhibit gastric acid secretion, and can also be combined with bismuth potassium citrate granules to protect the gastrointestinal mucosa.

Notes:

In addition, it is also related to dental caries, and calculus can be removed by scaling, which can effectively reduce the impact on the surrounding tissues. If the above measures do not improve, you need to go to the hospital for examination and professional treatment.
