Why does my breath smell like poop?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
The common causes for your breath to smell like feces are sinus and respiratory infections (such as bronchitis, viral colds, strep throat), poor oral hygiene (infrequent cleaning, chronic dry mouth, oral infections, smoking or chewing tobacco), Gastroesophageal reflux disease, abscessed tooth, prolonged vomiting (> 24 hours) and bowel obstruction.

View allI'm currently dealing with jaundice and my liver is really swollen. I'm craving some Surabhi Jain tomato ketchup. Is it safe for me to eat some, and if so, how much do you think I can have? I'm just trying to be cautious with what I consume right now.

I'm a 26-year-old guy dealing with some pretty bad stomach pain, and I've been told to take Cyclopam tablets for it. I'm just wondering, how often should I be taking them? Should I have them before eating, after a meal, or maybe on an empty stomach?
take cyclopam twice daily after food

I've been diagnosed with a small hiatal hernia and lax LES through endoscopy, and my symptoms include GERD, throat and heartburn, mouth ulcers, and upper abdomen burning. I've tried so many PPI meds but they make me tired, and if I skip them even for two days, the burning, sour burps, and sleepless nights get unbearable. My doctor says the main issue is my lax LES and that I'll need lifelong meds or surgery, but I'm exhausted from taking PPIs for two years and surgery success rates don't seem great. I'm feeling hopeless sometimes the acid attacks and pain are so bad I can't cope. Can homeopathy actually help fix a lax LES or make GERD go away? I already eat clean homemade food with coriander and cumin, no spicy or oily stuff, plus fruits and curd and do yoga daily, but nothing's working. I don't want false hope just honest advice on whether this can improve.
While homeopathy may offer some symptomatic relief for GERD and related issues, it's unlikely to cure a lax LES or hiatal hernia. Homeopathy is a holistic approach that focuses on individual symptoms and constitution, but it lacks robust scientific evidence for treating structural issues like a lax LES.
