Imagine you are in a meeting with your boss and other office colleagues etc. You find it difficult to open your mouth and talk freely due to the bad odour present in your mouth. Embarrassing situation right!!
The fact is for 25% of the population bad breath could be a chronic issue. Bad breath can be embarrassing and worrisome for us. Having bad breath is one of the most important reasons for many persons seeking dental care. Bad breath is also known as halitosis.
Though in most cases, bad breath could be treated but it could also indicate a more serious issue in us. By knowing the cause for bad breath, we would be able to eliminate this issue.
Several important reasons or causes for having bad breath are
Poor home care:
This is one important cause for the bad breath problem in us. It is true that we all have mouth bacteria and it could result in bad breath in us. By practising good home oral hygiene, we can remove the mouth bacteria. It is worthy to note that brushing and flossing well could help us to eliminate mouth bacteria and help us to avoid bad breath issues. In other words, poor home oral care would lead to tooth decay or infection and this could further result in bad odour in the mouth.
Gum disease:
Despite brushing our teeth well, we might still have bad breath in the mouth. The reason for that is due to gum disease. It would not be possible for us to just brush and floss the bacteria from the mouth if we have gum disease. The reason for that is because bacteria might be hiding under the gums and it cannot be reached by brush etc. The bad smell in the mouth would be present till gum disease gets treated.
Dry mouth:
We could get bad breath in the mouth if we have dry mouth or xerostomia. It must be taken into account that saliva is a natural way to wash our mouths throughout the day. When saliva reduces, a bad smell occurs in the mouth.
Smoking:
Smoking cigarettes can lead to both bad breath as well as periodontal disease. We could get dry mouth by smoking also. Sometimes, smoking continuously would reduce taste and smell etc and due to this we would be able to recognise bad breath.
Diet:
It is true that consuming certain foods like onions and garlic etc can lead to bad breath issues in us. Intake of low carb didiet or keto diet etc can lead to bad smell in the mouth.
Medications:
Not many would be aware of the fact that certain medications such as nitrates, phenothiazines etc can result in bad breath.
Medical problems:
We could get bad breath issues if we have mouth, nose and throat conditions like chronic sinus, allergy etc. Bad breath can also be due to serious problems like cancer, liver failure, GERD etc

Getting cured completely of a serious disease is really sensational but what if the disease comes back again after a few years?
In the last few decades, cancer survival rates have improved and that has brought great joy on the faces of many cancer patients but relapse or recurrence of cancer has been causing a huge amount of distress in them. Bitter fact is that cancer relapse could come back more aggressively also.
Over the years, medical science has developed to a huge extent and diagnosis of cancer and treatment has undergone many changes. The presence of advanced treatment options has improved the quality of lives.
It is worthy to mention here that advancement in medical technology has helped the doctors to detect cancer relapse at an earlier stage itself. There are several signs of cancer relapse that patients must keep an eye on.
Various cancer relapse signs are
Excess fatigue:
Sometimes, we might feel fully tired even after getting adequate rest. This is not normal and it could be due to relapse of cancer also. So, please take care,
Unexplained bleeding:
It must be taken into account that easy bleeding, unexplained bleeding and bleeding from unusual places could be due to cancer relapse also.
Continuous pain:
In some persons, certain specific pain would return back. In such a situation, they must not treat themselves without consulting the doctor.
Checking for new lumps:
Any unusual growth or lumps present in the body must be reported to the doctor without fail. It is important that we must not ignore it as just another growth.
Changes in digestion:
Bitter truth is that early signs of gastrointestinal cancer would be shown by nausea, bloating and bowel movement changes etc. Please take care.
Breathing difficulty;
When a person experiences shortness of breath and if it worsens over time then it might be due to cancer recurrence.
Persistent coughgh:
Sometimes, the cough would not go away and it might worsen also. This might be due to cancer relapse.
Unexplained weight loss:
Relapse of cancer would also be revealed by unexplained weight loss or weight loss without any effort. Please be careful.
