Breath smells like faeces (Poo)

we should open a what's up group😂

Hey there, I have been suffering from the same ordeal. I've tried everything in the book until about 2 weeks ago. Step 1 was to the dentist. Step 2 was to a walkin clinic. First off, I went to the dentist and found out that I had 2 cavaties which were  removed and filled just this past Monday. In addition, my hygenist performed a deep cleaning of my gums(scaling and planing). I was told that I'm going to need 2 crowns on teeth that may have cavaties but definitely have cracks. I won't get my crowns until next week. Next, I stopped in to a walkin clinic and was diagnosed with a sinus infection. I told the Doc that I had a lumpy feeling in my throat and that it feels like mucus. So he gave me another prescription for acid reflux, a steroid shot and a pencillin shot. With all of that, it has definitely made a difference. Plus, I am addicted to peppermint and needed to increase my water intake. So I'll add about 5 -6 peppermints to a 16oz glass of water and boy has that helped. Everytime I take a sip, my throat is chilled and I have not tasted the horrid smell and people are actually talking to me up close. It probably hurt to squeeze some lemon juice in there too. Thank You Jesus!

I have found a solution for me. Hopefully this can help others.

I have had "poop" breath for about 6 years. My case might be more specific to those with lung issues. I have a genetic lung disease (cystic fibrosis) that causes lots of mucus in my lungs. The smell is especially prevalent when I cough.

My oginial doctor treated it successfully with a harsh antibiotic - and the smell came back quickly after my course ended. The next 5 doctors I asked about it basically told me to do better on my normal breathing treatments that I do daily for my condition. Very frustrating.

I have experimented with additives to a nasal rinse (neil med sinus rinse is my preference). Nothing worked. I even resorted to Isopropyl alcohol (rubbing alcohol) in it. It burned and seemed promising, but didn't fix it.

Finally, I decided to BREATH IN the isopropyl - and my poop smell went away.

Apparently, I have an infection in my LUNGS that causes the smell. The doctors have been telling me I have MRSA in my lungs, but couldn't/wouldn't give me anything to kill it. They told me MRSA has become common, so maybe many of you have the same problem.

WARNING - DO NOT use Isopropyl. I started very quickly having dizzy spells. The googlesphere will tell you isopropyl is bad news to ingest and stays with you a long time. I breathed in the isopropyl for about 7 days total and still have a few minor dizzy spells 2 weeks later. DO use ethanol. Yes that ethanol.

I simply went to the liquor store and got a generic version of Ever Clear 190 proof grain alcohol. It is purer than the 91% isopropyl I was using.

Because of my daily course of breathing treatments, I have easy access to a nebulizer that turns the liquid into a mist that I breath in. Some of you may have to get creative or get it on EBAY or whatever. But I had to tell people about this. After 6 years of people assuming I fart when I cough, this is it. This did it. My wife will kiss me again. For a $20 visit to the liquor store. I truly hope this helps because it was one of my greatest shames - Im sure plenty of you feel the same.
