Bad Breath: A Home Remedy for Fresh Breath
Bad breath, also called halitosis, is a common problem that affects millions of people worldwide. One of the hidden causes of persistent bad breath is the formation of tonsil stones, also known as tonsilloliths. These are small, hard, yellowish or white clumps that form in the crevices of the tonsils. While they are usually not dangerous, they can cause an unpleasant odor, throat discomfort, and embarrassment in social situations.
🌟 What Are Tonsil Stones?
Tonsil stones form when food particles, mucus, dead cells, and bacteria get trapped in the tiny pockets of the tonsils. Over time, this debris hardens into small lumps. When they break free, they release a very strong odor due to sulfur-producing bacteria.
Common symptoms include:
Bad breath (halitosis)
White or yellow particles in the mouth or throat
Sore throat or discomfort when swallowing
Ear pain or a metallic taste in the mouth
