Bad Taste

[eash]

I have a bad taste in my mouth and nothing seems to be getting rid of it, any suggestions? I am just recovering from a cold.
Thanks

Bit of a long shot here but could you be pregnant Mr/Ms eash? : 0

it could be to do with the whole conection of ear, nose and throat. i too am recovering from a cold and get a funny taste in my mouth as the cold gets better. it could be the smell and taste returing at a slower rate than it disapears. i also smoke though and this could also be something to do with it.

It sounds more like a problem with your sinuses to me, but I'm not a medical bod so please don't take my word for it.
My niece suffers with blocked sinuses and it gives her a bad taste in her mouth, and she has a bad smell under her nose at all times.

I better not be pregnant! I am a Miss but am on the Pill! Plus it's been a while if you know what i mean...... lol
Sinuses could be the answer as I do not smoke....
Thanks i'll keep sucking the mints for the time being :-) x

take some acidophilous, it helps with the good bacteria in the tummy and so helps with bad breath, you are probably a bit run down but it can't hurt.

Try scraping your tongue with a tongue cleaner and then rinsing your mouth and gargling with Listerine.

Thanks, i did that this morning the scaping my tongue and using Listerine but that's a bit difficult at work!

Eash, that happens to me with my frequent sinus infections - in my case, it's post-nasal drip. When the infection clears, the drip stops and the taste disappears. So, unfortunately, it may be just a matter of waiting to heal. Taking acidophilus/eating yogurt is a good idea; probiotics are always helpful.

Sorry to be so vague. Hope you feel better soon.
