ANSWER: Hi Misba,
I have gone through your questions and understood your concern.
There are various factors causing bad breath:
- stomach problems: gastritis, GERD/reflux. If you are also having stomach complaints such as pain, heartburn. If yes, then, can start stomach medicines: PPIs (omeprazole) or Ranitidine
- liver problems: run abdominal ultrasound and blood liver function tests to exclude them
- bad teeth: should get checked by a dentist to treat them properly
- chronic angina (tonsillitis) or throat infection: should treat with proper antibiotics and oral anti-septics (spray) other than taking good oral hygiene.
Get also checked for diabetes and kidney problems to treat them in time.
Hope it helped!
