Well basically over the past year or so I've been suffering with bad breath, i use a tongue scraper, gargle salt water, brush & floss then rinse with a non - alcoholic mouthwash after every meal ( i know this sounds quite alot but its the only way i feel and smell clean).. Then bad breath temporarily goes for about 20mins but then comes back!! i feel like the source is coming from my tongue as i have like a fury texture & at the back of my tongue there are lots of nucks and crannies were i think the food settles in and the bacteria grows, im not too sure but ive been to the doctors and dentist and they both say nothing is wrong and this is after fully cleansing my mouth but i know that there defiantly is something wrong because this is not normal, i constantly have bad breath! :( this isn't me over exaggerating either because i notice that people are finding it difficult to be around me, this is really depressing me and making me feel almost suicidal i am in my late teens and all my friends are going out clubbing and alcohol just makes my breath even worse! .. ive tried gum and that doesn't help, can anyone please help diagnose my problem or any helpful advice.
I don't have post-nasal drip, geographic tongue or thrush because my tongues not soar. The only thing i think it could possibly be is a yeast infection , overgrowth of candida ablicans that starts in the intestine or gutt, what do you think?
