Bad breath(fart).

Posted , 54 users are following.

So I've been experiencing BB for a few years now. Just like everyone else I've tried many things with no success. At first I thought it was my mouth but starting to believe it's something in my gut. I'm tired of getting "did you fart?" comments. Thing is I believe it's in my gut is because I've been suffering with bloating and passing gas all the time. So if I'm passing gas a lot and my breath smells like the exact same...there's got to be a connection. I notice it gets worse when my mouth is dry, which seems to be a lot of the time. Not sure that's due to my gut or because I'm always stressed/anxious around people and it dries my mouth out. Another thing is I think it may be linked to my MERCURY FILLINGS and wondering if anyone with BB here has fillings..? I've also noticed skin rashes that look like ringworms and uti's off and on. I went for a H Pylori test and waiting in results and I've been on the candida diet for about a month now and really not seeing a difference. Thing is I've not always had this. I've had many relationships and they were long lasting. It's hard to pin point the exact time when I started getting comments. Keep in mind it's been a handful only of comments, but those were enough to take precaution around people. I don't feel like it smells all the time, but when I exhale deeply or use certain letters like "H" and laughter. So please let me know if you have fillings, trying to find a connection. I know we can beat this. It's hard to function everyday, trust me I know. You can be handsome and rich and would t matter if you have fart breath. A mentally challenged person has better luck functioning in life than we do! I know talking helps, I've only briefly mentioned it to a doctor, but she was skeptical. I'm willing to keep in contact with people via phone or/and Facebook so we can support each other and figure this out together. It hurts to be alone. Thanks.

    Whoa! My name is also daniel and i have the exact issues. I dont smell it myself usually but somtimes i do and i used to think one of my co-workers crapped thier pants but it was me! I noticed it was worse when my mouth was dry and after i smoked a cigarette. I was wondering if was coming from my mouth or my stomach and now i belive its my stomach. I feel like it has something to do with my alcahol abuse maybee i have cirrosis or somthing. It could be a blockage in my intestine scince i am constipated alot. It  also seems to be getting worse by the day. Geeeez i wish i knew wtf.

    Hello guyz! i actually don't know weather i should be writing this but i just wanted to tell u guys my personal opinion on this! sometimes in this world we are so lost that we forget that there is a God who created us! i personally think that if you have this problem you should pray to God! Because He created you and he might have answers to all your problems just make sure u pray to God. And not just any God your parents follow! Make sure you do enough research and find who is really the true creator of this universe! And pray to Him to help you! He might just miraculously remove the bad breath problem!

    Hi all, I have been experiencing this for about 10 years now, literally farting from the mouth it’s not constant but when it happens is incredibly stinky, been diagnosed lactose intolerant. If I stay away from greasy and sugary foods it does get better but doesn’t go away completely. Alcohol makes it bad too so as you can imagine social occasions are a nightmare so have turned into a bit of a recluse. Been for endoscopy on my tummy negative, bug tests, apple cider vinegar, anti acids nothing works, going for a scan on my tummy soon fingers crossed they find something because this is no way too love. Hope you all find your answers

    I don’t have fillings but have the same issues mentioned in this forum. I’ve tried everything from brushing teeth, tongue, using mouth wash, flossing, tonsillectomy, but nothing resolves it and it has gotten worse over time. Dread social gatherings and meeting new people. Am 33 and it started out of nowhere around 24, this stuff is crazy

    Hi Everyone,

    I have same bad breath problem since last 5 years and have never got cured. If i remember correct its started as i use to smoke cigarette, drink coffee and ate lot of junk. Had bad habit of eating food very fast. Due to all this i guess i used to have heartburn and gas that i ignored for long. 

     Then i started to felt metallic like substance in back of my throat and my mouth tasted bad so i took antibiotics but later it got worse. Embarrassed i had mint gums in the start to see if it helps but no....

    Now the smell that i felt in my mouth started to grow around me and people started to notice it. I go my sinus checked , my throat checked, my blood checked but nothing was wrong. As per reports i am fully healthy. I tried mouth freshner and even terabreath but no help.

    All these years, Below is what i have heard people who have felt that smell in my office, who use to work with me

    smell like dead rat

    smell like s**t and fart

    smell like rotten egg

    people have asked me , if i had just smoke but I stopped smoking the moment it all started.

    The smell is their always on me, but it mostly increases when i have tea, junk food, fruits some times, milk, chicken. I have done everything to get rid but no help. Family members around me don't feel it anymore and they just say you don't have it. 

    But when u are working in closed environment where there is no fresh air and air is regulated through air conditioner, it get worse. People get eye irritation, itching and sneeze due to my bad smell. I don't even open my mouth but i still feel its there as people are offended and close their nose. Even dogs catch your smell from distance and start to bark. Its like being  joke and like a freak.

    I noticed that i had mucus during my bowl and when i eat lot of sugar products or spicy food, i sometimes get blood too in my poop. Checked everyone post on web it say be more organic. So mostly now i do exercises, eat vegetables that don't cause gas and drink warm water. Sometimes i add apple cider vinegar to it. I still have this bad breath problem but now since last one year, i don't feel heartburns or gas most of the time but bad smell is always there 24x7 i guess. Its like i am fighting with myself. As if you go to doctors for bad breath then they say u should ignore it but socially how can we ignore when everyone around you feel that and want to clear the spot the moment i enter. Its mentally stressing as you cant even enjoy a gathering and want to just go and later stand outside of that place so nobody feel it anymore.

    I just now follow organic diet but still i have this issue. If anyone find a solution or treatment, please please please let me know too.

      Hello,

      I also wanted to know if you have got any back problem. Like any pain or injury in upper back.

      The reason i am asking this is coz i was researching about back problem that i have and while going through a chiropractic documentary , i came to learn that digestion form nervous system is controller by upper back area, I had pain in my back since last five years due to injury and few months after that the gas issue started and got worse. 

      Although i still think that its somewhere related to my gastric problem but was curious to know.

      I first did liver test and result showed nothing wrong then I went in for endoscopy and I was told my throat is fine but I have  H Pylori. I am not worried with that because I don't think it is the cause of my bad breadth because antibiotics doesn't seems to cure it. Yesterday, I decided to do a kidney test and I was told I have stage 3 kidney disease. I have read about kidney diseases and I have realized it gives blood pressure and make saliva smell like s**t. Something tells me it is the cause of my bad breath because my bad breadth began after six months of high blood pressure. I also feel pain at the back of my waist and have rushes on my stomach. I am planning to see a specialist and pray that it will help cure my bad breadth.

      I will advice that you do several tests, it might be something you never thought of. I never thought I have kidney problem.
