I am 79kg (52yrs) please suggest possible tests in Bangalore. regards.. Ahmed
Hi. Welcome to Chat Doctor. I read your query. Bad breath can be due to local oral causes like plaque, gum disease, bleeding or due to some systemic cause. Chat Doctor.  Taking odoriferous food such as onion, garlic, etc., Low carb diet also leads to smelly breath. Systemic causes include HERD, diabetes, kidney or liver disease, lung disease, etc. Do you experience some regurgitation or flatulence? This can happen even without H pylori infection. You may feel acid in mouth. This cause bad breath as well as can harm your teeth.
