Q: I hope you can help me solving my problem. I have halitosis, I’ve been suffering this since high school. It started when I was 14 years old.. But before that happen, I’m top achiever in class. My parents are really proud of me..After two years,,my halitosis appeared. It really destroyed my life. I even tried to commit suicide so many times..

Please help me…Thanks

A: ‘i noticed also that there something dripping at the back of my nose, a clear phlegm.’ That sounds like post-nasal drip, sweetie. That’s when your sinuses clear themselves out down the back of the nose. Post-nasal drip can definitely cause ‘bad breath’ and also a ‘bad taste’ in the mouth. Both can be very strong. This is because the phlegm stuff can harbour bad bacteria that smells and tastes funny. Smelling funny is more common than having a bad taste.The phlegm stuff will trickle down the back of your nose and drip down your throat. Sometimes people cannot feel it, sometimes they can.Post-nasal drip normally occurs when you have an allergic reaction, or have a cold that affects your sinuses – but there are conditions where it can happen constantly, or you may even be slightly allergic to something you use, and have used, every day since you were 14. I suggest you take this on as a possibility for your halitosis. Visit the Doctor and tell them about your post-nasal drip and other symptoms. Post-nasal drip problems can normally be cured pretty simply, so I wouldn’t worry much!Good luck!I have just remembered something for you. A friend of mine here on Yahoo told me recently of something she had been diagnosed of – something like ‘Ghost acid reflux’ (I may be wrong about that). I think she said it is where acid ‘fumes’ come up the food pipe, but you don’t feel heartburn (I may be wrong on that too). Since then, I have read that Acid Reflux of any kind, ‘ghost’ or not, can cause post-nasal drip because the sinuses get kind of irritated, and then start the drip to clear themselves out.So, if you have heartburn symptoms alot, I would consider talking to your doctor about ‘GERD’ which is an acid refluc disease. This combined with post-nasal drip may give you a double whammy of bad breath, and maybe bad taste.Good luck, please see your Doctor to talk about this! It could be really simple to get rid of!
