Several things: Could be from post nasal drip down the back of your throat causing a foul taste in your mouth.

You might want to soak your toothbrush in an antibacterial mouthwash overnight too.

Irritation/taste: Sounds like you may have a gum infection or abscessed tooth. Oral infections have been implicated in heart disease, stroke, kidney failure, pre-term low birth weight babies, and many other inflammatory dyscrasias. See your Dentist immediately. Problems like yours don't self cure, and there's no pill/poltice/snake oil/supplement/homeopathic that will substitute for professional care. Dentist&gt;Now!

Question 10

vomiting from migraine, foul taste in mouth ---> more vomiting?

Accepted Answer

Common: The best answer is to catch the migraine before it is full blown and abort it. When you have the first sign that you are going to get a migraine, take whatever medication your doctor has prescribed, or if nothing is prescribed and you can tolerate it, try 3 excedrine or 3 Aleve (naproxen) tablets. If you can, lay down in a dark quiet room. The sooner you catch it, the less likely you are to get the vomiting.
