What Causes Strong Bad Breath?
I have horrible breath and have not tested for positive for anything. A dog owner in the park told me that her dog is always yelping when I pass because she can detect health problems such as diabetes. Should I continue to look for another doctor even though my doctor has insisted that I am fine?

thank you for posting your query in healthcaremagic.com....
see bad breath or halitosis is one symptom that has many underlying causes like-
oral cavity infections
tooth infections or caries
tonsillitis or pharyngitis
abscesses- tonsillar, para or retropharyngeal
severe indigestion
severe malnutrition
and many more....
so it is impossible to tell you about your diagnosis or treatment without a proper history taking and a proper examination....
i would suggest you to visit a PHYSICIAN for further information and management....
hope this was helpful....
