Hi Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concern...
As per your symptoms, you might be having food lodgement beneath the dentures. Which is responsible for bad taste and discharge. Oral bacteria utilizes these food lodged and produces bi-products that have nasty taste.

Another cause may be any dental infection, due to dentures. As you had MRSA in past which is a very resistant strain of bacteria , you might need very effective antibiotics such as augmentin, ceftriaxime etc

so visit your oral physician he would treat you accordingly

hoping your query is solved
