What Causes Horrible Taste And Smell In My Mouth?

I have had a horrible taste and smell in my mouth since March 20th at which time I had H-Palori. I took the antibiotics to treat it but I still have the taste and smell. I have been to the dentist. I have had an upper GI and some stomach biopsy s. Neither doctor found any problems that could be causing this. The only medicine I am taking is a pill for my stomach, a pro-biotic and a hormone pill. Please help me. I don t know where else to go from here.

Hi Dear ,

As per your query you have bad taste and bad smell in your mouth . Well there can be many reasons for such symptoms like certain medications , nervous disorder , oral health problem , acid reflux , fungal infection and zinc and vitamin B 12 deficiency . It seems to me that in your case it is occurring either due to nervous disorder or your hormonal pills . I would suggest you to consult neurologist for proper examination and treatment , I would also suggest you to consult doctor who prescribed you hormonal pill and discuss the case with him //her . Your doctor may alter the dose or prescribed some alternative . For now maintain proper oral hygiene , suck on sugar free mint candy and eat healthy . Also dring reen tea thrice a day .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
