What Causes Bad Taste In Mouth And Vomiting After Open Heart Surgery?
My father had open heart surgery a month back and had some complication in his left lunge and after a comprehensive antibiotic course he is better now and left the hospital a week back. Now he feels that his saliva has a bad taste and smell which makes him vomiting during the meals and lose his appetite. Is this normal? How can we deal with this situation? patient age is :55 year, weight is :95 Kg

Hi,
It may be caused by candidiasis after the antibiotics. I would advise you to see a ENT doctor to find out whether there is candidosis and prescribe a treatment.
Take care
Come back if you have any further questions
