Can bad breath be related to abdo pain?

Posted , 6 users are following.

Hi there. I have had upper right abdo pain for a few weeks and had bowel problems for years. The last few days I have had a disgusting taste in my mouth and my husband said my breath is really bad. I brush my teeth and mouthwash constantly and have recently been to the dentist and had no problems with my teeth. Can anyone advise if these symptoms could be connected or has anyone else experienced similar symptoms? Thanks.

    Bad breath could be related to a stomach problem but it's not very common.

    if you had bowl problems it could be Gerd, acid reflux or silent reflux. Ive felt like i had bad taste in mouth and a croaky throat sometimes and then one day i felt it coming up slowly in throat. Had a slight coating on tongue so i knew it was coming up without me really noticing. Certain high fodmap foods also cause more gas when they breakdown in the gut which smells also.
