CAUSES AND SYMPTOMS OF BAD BREATH



LITERALLY WE ALL KNOW WHAT BAD BREATH IS.But do we all know what really is the cause of bad breath?Bad breath is the unpleasant odor.In the medical field it is called HALITOSIS.This will go on and on if it will not be treated.If you have a bad breath,the very first thing people tagged you as "poor hygienic person",and its not a good impression.There are millions and millions and millions of bacteria live in the mouth and produce sulphur gases and cause of bad breath.As i had my research,i found some causes of bad breath:

CAUSES OF BAD BREATH:
  1. POOR DENTAL HYGIENE
  2. INFECTIONS IN THE MOUTH
  3. INFECTIONS IN THE RESPIRATORY
  4. SYSTEMIC ILLNESS
  5. DRY MOUTH
  6. EXTERNAL AGENTS
SYMPTOMS OF BAD BREATH:

  1. SOUR TASTE
  2. METALLIC TASTE
  3. DRY MOUTH
  4. POST NASAL DRAINAGE
  5. FILM ON THE TONGUE

THE OTHER PRIMARY REASON Of BAD BREATH IS THE IMPROPER DIGESTION.Eating healthy foods such as vegetables,grains,fruits especially high in Vitamin C help improve the digestive system.If you want to check if you have bad breath try this out:

* GET A SPOON,TURNED IT UPSIDE DOWN AND SCRAPE THE VERY BACK OF YOUR TONGUE SLOWLY ,YOU WILL SEE SOME WHITE MATERIALS,NOW SMELL IT..BAD? OR NOT SO BAD..OR EVEN WORST..(that's probably how you smell to others..

*LICK YOUR WRIST SLOWLY FROM BACK OF YOUR TONGUE TWICE.WHEN THE SALIVA DRIESS UP,SMELL IT..

Basically those are just 2 steps to know the smell of your breath.To make sure that your breath has no unpleasant odor,you can visit your dentist and have your teeth and gums checked.There is no duration of where and when the bad breath last because it will depend of the cause.Early treatment and prevention should be done so not to have bad breath.Preventions includes brushing your teeth,tongue and gums after eating,flossing,rinse with a mouth wash,and visit your dentist regularly.

AMOEBA

For the past 3 days,i wasn't active with my blog for some medical reason's.Just last Sunday,we are very sad and so worried when we found out that the poop of or baby is not normal.He's been defecating and its not solid anymore but water.After 3 hours,we rushed him to the hospital to have him checked.We were advised to have a stool exam and later, our Pediatrician found out that he is positive of AMOEBA.What a surprise.He's drinking a distilled water,bath with a mineral water,bottles & even toy's are sterilized,cottons under go with an autoclave,alcohol before holding him,well sanitized room and house,but what a surprise,he still got it.I asked our Pediatrician why he got it and where,She said,that's the common disease we got if its a rainy season.No matter how we avoid it,it will attack us especially to the babies.We are just so blessed because baby Sky is such a strong willed baby.We know deep inside that he's fighting.Given the fact that he's not feeling well,that he's tummy is aching,but still he smiled and hugged us and play's with us and not showing any signs that he's sick as if everything is normal.God is so good that he provides us all the things needed for he's medication.Right now,baby Sky is still under medication,given proper diet and 100 times careful with everything.
My apology to my friends who visited here and wasn't visit you in return.Hope you all will understand.I'll double my time to visit you guys.Thank you..

AIRSOFT






For the past 2 years, my hubby was active playing Airsoft.For those who don't knot what an airsoft is,its a hobby or sport where they use firearms replicas and play as if they are in a war.When they play they set a goal to obtain depends on what they agreed upon.Who ever has the last men standing or the first one to achieve that certain goal, the marshal will then declare as the winner.
If you decide to joined this kind of hobby or sport,you should be emotionally and financially prepared.Emotionally because since you are plying as if your'e in a war,you have to anticipate that someone out there will totally cracked you and surely hit you.Financially because you should have all the basic gear in order for you toplay.

  3. FACE PROTECTON-MASK
  4. KNEE-PADS
  5. WARMER
  6. GLOVES
